We managed Krakow a few years back over Christmas. Really enjoyed it. We've been lucky in that we've managed to get to quite a few places but the list just grows and grows. Wrocław is also a great place and less touristy than Krakow.

We’ve done the seaside resort thing abroad to death, although I still enjoy that. But since doing Sorrento last year I really want to do more interesting City breaks

I'm not a seaside resort fan (too bloody old). Old, historic cities are my favourite thing. Thankfully Europe is chocca with them.

No we're not anymore. Tbh I really hate the whole airport experience. Long gone are the days when I could sit on a plane for 10-12 hours. Also the whole set up at airports is just blurgh!!!

Yes. Not helped in Europe not being in the EU. My experience at Tenerife airport and Naples has been crap since we’re now ‘also rans’ in the airport buildings.

Yes exactly. We flew from T5 @ Heathrow to Brussles. Both airports were shite IMO. I prefer the smaller regional places or train travel. If we lived further east I would take the train every single time. Also train travel from here is so expensive😫

Nope 'cos I'm 65 my ticket from Brussels Airport to Bruges was 15 euros and was a same day return (if I wanted to use it). It's a 90 minute train journey.
