cfbbackupLets see if I can get it right this time.
Sorry this is so late. Ended up in the hospital this afternoon. This will be a low key week because I don't have it in me for a lot of activities at the moment.
Welcome to The Ebbsfleet International Railway Station located to the east of London. From here, you will be catching the Eurostar train to Paris. Make sure you have your Eurail train pass handy. This is the pass that will allow you to travel throughout europe. If you lose this, you may have to buy a new ticket or remain where you are while the rest of us go on.
Feel free to have a look around the station. The train will be here shortly. As soon as it arrives, you can find your seat and then wander around and get to know your fellow travelers.
Day 2: Welcome to Paris. Feel free to wander around and enjoy the sites.
Check out these attractions: Attractions
If you just want to find a hotel, here are recommendations: Hotels
Day 3: Welcome to Amsterdam. There are sites to see for everyone. Check out the canals. Eat in one of the many fine restaurants. Or if you are into more risqué fun, check out the Red Light District. Here.
We'll be heading for Berlin in the morning.
Day 5:
Today we've arrived in Venice. Venice is really a collection of small islands connected by canals. Venice is the perfect city for couples. If you want to stay around, you can catch the Venice Carnival that begins the end of January. For now, you can take a romantic or relaxing Gondola ride. You can take a tour of the city by boat. You can crash in one of the many luxury hotels. There are museums, amazing architecture, or opera houses. If nightlife is your thing, there are jazz clubs, coffee houses, and pubs to enjoy.

Things to Do
Day 7: And our trip this week ends in Budapest. Stay as long as you like and enjoy your trip home.

I'm also quite the workaholic, so doing Gregory is really the only fun I have time for.

Date: 2013-01-21 11:09 pm (UTC)Officially, I occupy a minor position in the British Government. Unofficially, well let's just say I have the ability to make Gregory's ex-wife's life very unpleasant. Just don't tell him I said that - he'll be cross that I'm meddling.

Re: At a cafe in Amsterdam...
Date: 2013-01-23 03:16 pm (UTC)Don't lose faith that you'll find someone.
Before Gregory, I thought I was destined to be alone.

((Apparently getting high makes him want to play matchmaker. Who knew?))
Re: At a cafe in Amsterdam...
Date: 2013-01-23 07:57 pm (UTC)You're serious about this, right? You're not just screwing around with me because I'm a little high?
- Molly
((Lord knows she could use it. I'm tired of Molly being single.))

((I can always throw my one single guy character at her and see what happens.))
Re: At a cafe in Amsterdam...
Date: 2013-01-23 08:02 pm (UTC)I'm choosing to trust you.
- Molly
((Who is your one single guy character?))

((Nick Stokes from CSI. Alternatively, I've been thinking about also picking up the CSI character Liev Shrieber played for 4 episodes like 6 years ago - I just need to rewatch the episodes first.))

((I LOVE NICK SO MUCH. It would be interesting to see if that worked. Her only other prospect up until now has been Spencer Reid, but Dani didn't play him for very long. They got along well.))

((I've been in love with Nick pretty much since the day I started watching the show. I'm going to another museum this afternoon - I just need to change out of sweats and into real clothes first - but I'll drop him off somewhere in the post later.))
