Seems like we're all full of Wanderlust on RoM. As such, a thread to discuss where we've booked and to ask questions any locals or previous visitors can answer.
I'm off to Zagreb with the Mrs in a few weeks, any ideas for day-trips, food & drink greatly appreciated.

Good idea, this. I live for travel. It's pretty much my number 1 hobby. My wife and I challenged ourselves to try to visit all 50 states in the USA. We've done 36 and I'm currently working on an Easter 2019 itinerary that will take us to another 6. Aer Lingus offered return flights LHR to Seattle (via Dublin) for about £400 a head so I pounced on it!

Also my favourite hobby but having to buy 4 tickets and get someone to lool after the dog and get extra beds has made it more difficult but March will be my first overseas trip since Bali about 3 years ago.
Going to the u.k and I'm hoping to throw in Spain and maybe Israel.

Along the way I've booked cabins in northern Idaho and Montana, a little place at Yellowstone National Park and an Airbnb above an Irish pub in Idaho Falls! Also got 2 nights in Salt Lake City and 2 nights in Portland. Right now I'm looking for the perfect place for our final night. I want somewhere with a private balcony overlooking the Pacific Ocean on the Oregon coast and it must have a jacuzzi! For me, planning the trips is almost as fun as the trips themselves!

So get stateside, collect your bags and go. It's much better. Don't forget to buy a box of celebrations or similar in duty free. Give it to the stewardesses when you board.😉

Certainly hope so but I'll be travelling whenever is cheapest and the wife wants to stay in London for a while so I will have to see.

So I try to get the flight that arrives just after lunch. Hoping to get back over in Oct.
