We think we have finally sorted out our route - Belgium, Germany - through the Brenner Pass and down through Italy to Bari. This is about 1200 miles and we have allowed ourselves 4 days.
Travel insurance proved to be a challenge - because of our ages, medical history and the length of the stay - 99 days. We trawled through dozens of companies and only one was interested in offering insurance to us but we are sorted now.
We are keeping very busy packing stuff to take with us, getting the house in the UK ready to sell and Phil is helping sort out the Granny flat.
We thought we had a buyer for our apartment in Spain but it fell through as the purchasers could not get a mortgage. So back to the drawing board with that. We are going over to Spain in March to sign a Power of Attorney for when it eventually sells.
What a shame you are missing France, you could have had a few days with us xx
