our river trip through Europe

Look very much like it will be cancelled if not by the travel company then by us. Won't say what I think about the Chinese causing this virus, not just this but the misery it has caused world wide
Kennels cancelled as well as heathrow parking company we use, they have given us a 3 year voucher

Re: our river trip through Europe

This trip now with the added +25% as the firm cancelled is over £8,500 (if we had to pay full amount) plus any additional site tours not already included, which is a day out everyday and food on the tours if necessary. I don't think Viking are out to "sting "us.
15 days with 12 tours and 4 countries


And why not? worked damn hard, (to the point of illness stress related), all our lives ,many years without a holiday, took serious risk leaving (safe) job to go self employed move to another part of the country to buy a business and built that up over 20 years. Saved and invested and now not bad pension schemes.

Not that I am complaining, just stating facts.I always thought if you don't try you will never know what you can achieve.

Retired going to enjoy our time from now on. Seen several parts of the world - Japan- China- Brazil- Argentina- Russia- Norway- Carribbean- USA - Tunisia- Egypt- Spain -Sicily-Germany -Estonia- Latvia-Denmark- Finland- Sweden. Some more than once -med cruise twice etc

and going to see more virus permitting

Love to go back to Norway and China if wondering
