Planning the 2016 trip

2016 is the year my long service leave kicks in (9 weeks of paid leave, yippee for Australian workplace laws), so we’re planning a couple of trips. Rather than go on one long trip we’re breaking it up.
The first leg is Europe – England, Ireland, Iceland and France for 4 weeks. Then back to Melbourne for 2 weeks. Pack up again and go to Alaska and Canada. We’re doing a cruise of Alaska, driving a bit in Canada along the Rockies to Calgary and Lake Louise, then flying to Toronto for Niagara Falls.

As usual, I’ll try and post every day and upload photos.
