Team Helios is at it again. We are headed off on a train tour of Germany and France. Of course the weather for our departure leaves a lot to be desired. Raleigh has Snow, Ice and Freezing Fog! Oh well, we wouldn't want it any other way.
Our plans have us flying into Frankfurt and then heading for one of my favorite cities, Munich before going through the Alps, southern France and finally leaving out of Paris. James spent the last few days testing his theory that we could get everything we need to carry for this trip into two backpacks. After a fierce battle and getting rid of a few changes of cloths, he won. If it sounds like your after college tour, you would be right. We are going to finally live out that misspent youth we never had.
While we may not spend much on transportation and lodging, there is one big difference from a true budget tour. We are looking forward to some fine food and wine everywhere we go. You have to have priorities. And yes, before you ask, we are planning a pilgrimage to Euro Disney. Though, I am worried we won't have enough room in our backpacks for all the new 'ears'.
We have our trusty GPS and Le Guide Michelin in hand and will keep you updated with all the news from the road.
Enjoy
