Leaving St Pancras travelling through to Gare-du-Nord. About 2 hours from London City to the Paris City.

We set off on a long drive from Edinburgh to Chichester then spent the next day relaxing. Before visiting Portsmouth, the home of the Royal Navy. With the last few days travelling from to London.

The whole holiday was an absolute pleasure from visiting family in Scotland and England and also France. I have split the holiday into three parts

Part 1 Scotland

It was a long holiday starting in Scotland, down to England then over to Italy. We certainly packed a lot in. When we stopped in Hong Kong it was meant to be a wind down then we realised we had never been to Macau. We had a lovely day but a hair raising trip on the boat back to HK as the city was going into imminent typhoon category. We just made the rough trip back and managed to get back to our hotel before the city went into shutdown.

We had a couple of days in Rome then a very long day travelling south (part 3) before travelling by train the next day to Venice.

Stepping out of the station right on to the walkway with the Grand Canal right there was a fantastic start to our three day stay before moving on to Florence again for three days stay before heading back to Rome then home.
