It began with a visit to 'Travel Destinations' at Olympia, which was pretty much the same as previous years but always fires the imagination and the possibilities. Added to this we have been following my son and his girlfriend as they make their way in and around South East Asia. This has resulted in our atlas being dusted off and google searches galore, as we locate them in places we have never heard of before.
Planning future trips to Venice and finding a hotel there has taken up part of our waking hours with the remaining time divided between discussing our visit to Cape Town and arrangements for staying there in our flat.
All this following the whereabouts of the gadabouts (7 hours ahead in Vietnam), our own mind expanding travelling, reading books and viewing websites* is exhausting and I'm getting itchy feet.
'Chocks away ginger', nearly time to fly and leave the armchair for awhile.
Relax and enjoy the flight in luxury with armchair-airways dot con !
