Off to that Europe...

[Brian Ross]

At last, the time has come. Setting off on Thursday for Slovenia , Croatia and Montenegro. After some major hassles with overnight trains, after the Dutch operator we booked on from Holland to Slovenia ceased operating we are now sailing from Hull to Rotterdam, riding to Dusseldorf. Overnight train to Vienna and a day riding through Austria to arrive in Bled, Slovenia on late Monday afternoon. Then 2 weeks touring. Going with another couple also on a blue Trophy. Hurry up tomorrow!

Enjoy. We were also caught up in the rails avers. Fiasco and travel on the 28th for a trip to italyon a blue trophy. Just back from 3 days in Scotland trophy is no awesome machine. Have a great trip and look forward to hearing about it. Hope the replacement rail service works !

I clearly have fat fingers - arriving Bled on Saturday afternoon. Doesn't take that long to cross Austria!

We booked direct with the rail operator so it was "interesting" chasing for our money, but eventually repaid in full. Austrian rail service is actually best part of £400 cheaper for the 4 of us so that will pay for a few drinks!

Always amuses me when a Brit refers to Europe as if it were a different continent.  You know the old newspaper headlines "Fog in Channel, Continent isolated!"
