Hi folks, no photos this time just a round up of a few things my mum and I would like you to know.

Krakow was our favourite city. Rome was our least favourite. Lake garda was our most relaxing destination and the eastern Europeans, particularly the Poles were the nicest people. Our opinion only but it's what we both felt.

The trip was fantastic, its hard work but I can recommend it to anyone of any age. Stay in hostels, they are great and you meet lots of people. They don't have to be dorms, they can be double en-suite rooms. All were as good if not better than some of the hotels I've stayed in. We used hostebookers.com to find the hostels and all descriptions and reviews were spot on. Can i suggest that you may be cheaper buying ticket for trains when you need them particularly in eastern europe. Even when you get the pass, you still need to pay for reservations. In Italy this can add up. If you need to reserve seats, you could be waiting in queues anyway. The Deutsche Bahn UK office in England is good for buying your tickets and checking prices from the Uk. It can take a while to get through so call first thing in the morning.

I hope you enjoyed reading our blog and we both wish you happy travels

Now I'm off to get out on the motorbike I treated myself to on my return!
