My 70th Year

Oh my word, there are plans afoot for this special year.
Already booked are extended travels to Greece for the Spring, possibly via Croatia, Macedonia and Northern Greece, returning with our oft used route up the Adriatic to Venice.
Various mini breaks throughout the summer months to enjoy the UK and France for a few weeks in Autumn.
The highlight of  2016 will be India in Novembet!!
Not an Exotic Marigold Hotel visit, but 3 weeks spent travelling from the north to the south of India.
The Himalayas, Amritsar, an  Indian mountain railway from Kalka to Shimla, religious ceremonies on the Ganges,The Golden Triangle, Delhi, Jaipur, Agra and the Taj Mahal. Then on to Mumbai. Planes, trains, rickshaws, elephants and rice boats on the Kerela backwaters before collapsing on the coast, south of Goa, for a few days, in order to relax and absorb the colours of India.
Happy 70th Birthday!!
