The first thing I would recommend is that you put the photos you want to share in an album created either by google, picassa or on sympatico. Either one of these sites offer photo albums. And they're…Continue

Comment by Carol Harper on Wednesday Hi Megan,
I did my trip through Globus . This is a tour built by Canadians especially for Canadians and really worth taking . If you would like, just send me your email and I will forward you a copy of the itinerary. Sorry for the late reply!

Comment by Megan on May 12, 2013 at 6:01pm Hi Carol: Would you give a few more details of your trip, please? I am planning a trip to England, Vimy & Italy next year. Did you use a tour company or plan the trip yourself?
Thanks, Megan
Comment by Carol Harper on May 11, 2013 at 6:36pm Hi, I just returned from a Canadian War Memorial Tour for Canadians of WWI and WW II. It started in France, into Belgium and ended in England A tour I believe everyone should take once as it shows us just how much we should prize our freedom and the sacrifices made by so many .
Comment by Marianne Perry on March 27, 2013 at 8:32pm Good Evening. I love to travel and take photos. Here's a link to my blog with pictures from Calabria, southern Italy. My grandmother was born there and I went to her village to learn more about her. Has anyone been to Calabria. Excited to see your photos. Thanks. Marianne from Canada

Comment by Megan on January 13, 2013 at 3:04pm Hi Ruth: Have you tried the site airbnb.com? My daughter has used it for places to stay in New York City & our upcoming trip to England & France. The person offering their place for rent has to pay a fee so it keeps most of the bad places out. My daughter has used ones with a few comments. Our apartments in New York City in 2010 and 2012 were great! I hope you find the perfect place! Enjoy your trip!

Comment by evelyn O Mahoney on March 25, 2012 at 11:26am I've been to Scotsdale; my father went there when he retired. it was mostly retirees there then; whole trailer parks full of them.But the air was cleaner there then, I'm not so sure about it now.and it is warm, it's all desert.
Comment by Carolyn on March 22, 2012 at 12:18am Evelyn, enjoy yourself.
Megan - The only experience I have with renting a self-catering flat is in London - it has lots of options. Greenwich is a part of London so you might find something there - I've always stayed more central. Google is your friend - see what you can find in the smaller places and the distances from each other - there are likely cottages for rent. In places like Yorkshire, I think you would need a car.
Comment by Megan on March 21, 2012 at 3:18pm Hi Carolyn. When I go over with my daughter & son-in-law we were thinking of staying in places where we could prepare our meals. Any suggestions or tips? We are going to be in Ashburton & Tiverton, Devon; Greenwich; Lightcliffe, Yorkshire; Grimsby; Whitworth, Lancashire. I haven't spent time checking the distance between the places that I know are in roughly the same area, yet. We are also trying to decide if we need to rent a vehicle very often to visit places.
Have a great time Evelyn!!! I'll be looking forward to seeing any pics to post.
