Blink and you'll miss Europe!

Nearly 6 weeks ... 12 countries ... on a bus with a bunch of drunk, horny Aussies/Kiwis/Springboks ... should be an experience to say the least! So if you want to track me down ... here's the itinery:

May 27: London to Paris - the white cliffs of Doverand a cross-Channel ferry to France
May 28-29: Paris - the usual suspects (Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, the Arc de Triomphe, Notre Dame, Champs Elysees)
May 30-31: Paris to Beaujolais Wine Region, Lyon - vineyards
June 1: Lyon to Barcelona - through the Spanish border to Barcelona
June 2: Barcelona - Flamenco, tapas and Gaudi's Art Noveau Cathedral
June 3: Barcelona to Antibes- French Riveria - back through into France
June 4: French Riveria - mingling with the rich & famous at Cannes, gambling at Monte Carlo
June 5: Antibes to Florence - Leaning Tower of Pisa
June 6: Florence - Piazza della Signoria, the Duomo and Santa Croce
June 7: Florence to Rome - yes ... all roads do in fact lead to Rome (with the Trevi Fountain, Piazza Venezia, Pantheon and Piazza Navona thrown in for good measure)
June 8: Rome - getting holy with it at Vatican City and the Sistine Chapel
June 9: Rome to Corfu - Pompeii
June 10-12: Corfu - Sun-filled days on the beautiful Greek island

June 14: Athens - birthplace to the modern Olympics
June 15-16: Mykonos - more beautiful Greek islands ... life is tough
June 17: Mykonos to Athens - I think this is called "recovery time"
June 18-19: Athens to Italy - the Acropolis and Parthenon, then across the Adriatic Sea to Italy

June 21: Venice - St Marks Square, the Doges' Palace and Bridge of Sighs
June 22: Venice to Vienna - waltzing into Vienna

June 24: Vienna to Munich - enjoy that Bavarian hospitality with a nice beer
June 25: Munich - home to the Glockenspiel ... 'nuf said.
June 26: Hopfgarten - may possibly involve a near-death experience as I go white-water rafting
June 27: Hopfgarten to Lauterbrunnen - Lucerne and the Swiss Alps
June 28: Swiss Alps - the cog mountain railway of Eiger mountain
June 29: Lauterbrunnen to Rhine Valley - into Germany
