Swiss Alps Perfect Ski Weekend!

Image
Jeff and I are always on the lookout for great weekend getaways, especially during London's dreary winters. We like to ski, so naturally a weekend in the Swiss Alps sounded intriguing. Why not head to Switzerland and see how the skiing compares to our native Lake Tahoe, California slopes? Sounds good to us! and the answer to that question is Switzerland wins : Longer runs, zero lift lines, ability to ski multiple resorts on one ticket. I'm all about the charm, and once we had heard that there were adorable car-free villages in the Swiss Alps which could only be reached by a cog train, we were "IN"! After a bit of research, we decided on Wengen ("W's" are pronounced as a V in German). Gotta say, it couldn't have been a more perfect weekend. Well, except that Switzerland is expensive... that would be Expensive with a capital E. Day1: Thursday ..."PLANES AND TRAINS" We hopped on an 8:30am flight from London's City Ai

Sensational Santorini: How to avoid the Summer Crowds!

Image
We love Santorini, with its picturesque whitewashed homes and beautiful blue domes. But there is just one problem. So does everybody else! Santorini in the summer is like being part of a massive parade. Our friend Peter said that with Santorini, a picture is worth a thousand words, so here is 1000 words worth.  Photo courtesy of Earth Trekkers YIKES!!!!!!!  It seems that there is no way to get off  the "giant cruise ship" that is Santorini...or is there? We just returned from a second trip to the famed crescent island, and managed to find seclusion in the midst of the tourist insanity.

A is for Athens

Image
After a bitter cold May weekend  in London (the coldest in 180 years), a trip to Athens to meet up with some friends sounded like just the ticket! So this weekend, we are jetting to the historic capital of Europe. We're hereeeeee!!!! It's less than a three hour flight from London's Gatwick Airport, and a half hour cab ride to our AirBnB in the Plaka District, which is super cool.  I highly recommend staying in this area--it's the oldest section of Athens, right in the center, just under the Acropolis Hill, and it's been inhabited continuously for over 3000 years! So, if you don't mind a few tourists, try to stay here because so many of the great archeological sites are just out your door! We also splurged a bit for a view of the Acropolis, but you will find the prices for accommodations here in Athens quite reasonable. From our Air BnB, we literally walk out the door and onto the Dionysiou Areopagitou pedestrian street, which borders the Acropolis
