Julio Cruz posted:The Canaries would definitely qualify for good weather but I don't know if there's really much to explore, there's not a lot to do there unless you like beaches, surfing/diving or hiking. I don't do beaches/watersports and only limited hiking, but I had no problem finding stuff to see for a week (each) in Gran Canaria, Tenerife, La Palma, or Madeira. Gran Canaria has a bunch of pretty towns with colonial churches and mansions, Tenerife has the same and a big volcano you can climb, La Palma has a bunch of telescopes and laws against light pollution - great for star gazing. Madeira is probably the hikiest of the islands, but I only spend a day doing that - other highlights included the annual processing of sugar cane in early May (one place had steam powered grinders!) and whale watching. After a week though, I felt that I had pretty much seen what I wanted on each island.

I was in Georgia for 10 days 2 years ago. Beautiful country, friendly people, low prices. People in this forum warned me against driving there, but it wasn't THAT bad.

I have a layover at CDG from 1710 to 2205. Do y'all reckon that's enough time to take the train to the Eiffel Tower area and have a little stroll? Are there luggage lockers at CDG?

Yeah, you're probably right. It's me and a few colleagues going Copenhagen-Paris-Luanda (so no customs) and we're just sick of being in CDG for that long. Eh...

I know very little about Paris, but might it be better to stay on the train until St. Michel? On Google Maps it seems that there is more to see in that area.

Drone posted:So at least I've narrowed it down to a general area. Any hidden gems in Denmark? Copenhagen seems expensive as hell. So depending on how far north you want to go, the Jelling monument near Vejle (as previously mentioned) is a fairly big deal. Anyway, what are you into? History, nature, art? For nature there is the Wadden Sea national park For history there is The Frøslev Camp where Danish resistance fighters were imprisoned in WW2, and collaborators (mostly from the German minority) were imprisoned after WW2, Sønderborg Castle with exhibitions on the history of the region, the Tirpitz Museum set in a WW2 gun battery. For a pretty view go for a walk on Knivsbjerg, the focal point of the German minority. I'm not really into art museums, but Brundlund Slot is supposed to be good. That's just off the top of my head. edit: If you want to go for a stroll on a pretty little island there is Barsø. It's only a 15 minute ferry trip.

Whorelord posted:I'm off on a last minute week long holiday to Georgia (they're in UEFA and Eurovision, they're European). Can anyone whose been tell me if this itinerary looks good/possible (yes it's one of those posts): When I went to Georgia I rented a car, so I don't really know how it works with public transport, but I'd say that itinerary looks reasonable.

Anyone been to La Gomera and/or El Hierro in the Canary Islands? What did you do there?
