Not home now, but in Perth Western Australia.

Visiting a brother In Perth, then off to Europe for 12 weeks.
Dubai 3 days
Budapest 3 days
Danube and Rhine Rivers 14 days
Amsterdam 4 days
Lake Como district 7 days
Rome 7 days (my niece's wedding)
Swiss Rail touring including cos and rack railways 9 days
Southern Italy mini bus tour 6 days looking at ancient Roman sites,
Rome 2 days
Venice 2 days
Sicily 8 days looking at ancient Greek sites
Rome back to Sydney (home).

The Danube - Rhine river cruise was on my parents' bucket list, but health prevented them. They are both gone now, so I am dedicating the river cruise to their memory.

The Swiss Rail adventure was on my bucket list for many years, so I am now taking the opportunity, and also travelling around ancient Roman and Greek (Sicily) archaeological sites.
My first numismatic love is ancient coins, so touring in Southern Italy and Sicily is appropriate.

I will use internet cafe's, when the opportunity arises.

Enjoy all those stops and don't forget to pick up some numismatic material. FYI currency is lighter than coins.

As an elderly couple said to my wife and I when we were visiting China - "Cover the Earth before the Earth covers you"! We are taking their advice.

Have a safe and pleasant journey!
