Well gang, this was the year for the BIG trip. Angie and I have been waiting with great anticipation for this trip. We have had several false starts in our planning, but after dealing with incompetent travel agents, we finally got everything together.
Our biggest hassle was trying to get our upgrades on American Airlines. After two months of back and forth in the postal mail, I finally went into their offices and got it all straightened out.
Since Steve has been to Europe twice and Angie never, we decided to plan this trip with mostly the cities and sites that Angie wanted to see. We decided to see the following cities:
London, Paris, Rome, Venice, Munich and Zurich.
It does sound like a lot of cities, but we did go for three weeks! So we had enough time in almost all the cities.
Having finished packing and completed the decision of what to take with us, we waited for our ride to the airport.
