One of the issues we had when I was worked, was the amount of travel it required. When in NYC and VP Sales, some years I was out nearly 190 nights a year. Back in CA, Golf sales, seems with all the events, normal sales calls, Trunk Shows, etc. I was always going somewhere, so when a time for a break came, we did not take any long vacations for a number of years. I needed to catch up on rest. So bottom line, being retired, already across the pond, we have found the time, etc to be able to really enjoy living here. So far this year just the one trip to Toulouse and Albi, but we will be in London, then Budapest to Amsterdam with the Vicking River Cruise, then in CA for nealy two weeks. Fall is still in the planning stages but most likey more spots in France we have not seen, plus it looks like a double bonus for us with our Son's famiy. They are coming for Christmas so we will meet them in Paris then Bordeaux ++??
Next year parts of Spain we have not seen, another trip to Italy, plus trips around France. Did not know if I mentioned I have several cousins here in different parts of France and we enjoy visiting them as well.
Year after, Austria, Ireland/Scotland.
