So far, I’ve been impressed by this tour group.   One of the things the tour guide sent out yesterday was a list of movies about Eastern Europe that we might watch before we go.  Well, since I love movies, I was all in.  First on my list, Woman in Gold, set in in Vienna, told both in the now and the WW II era.  It was really good — heartbreaking in a lot of ways — but well done.

Have you seen it?

I promised yesterday more information about my upcoming trip.

I’m going with a tour group called Sights and Soul. It’s an all-women tour with a maximum of sixteen women per trip. Tours aren’t generally my thing; I like to set my own agenda and go, see, and do what I want. However, a good friend has been on quite a few of the Sights and Soul tours and she raves about them. So, since I’m always up for a new traveling experience, I thought I’d give it a try. And going to Eastern Europe with a group rather than my own seemed a good place to start.

So, check out the groups website and let me know what you think.  Sights and Soul.

In ten days, I’m leaving for a two week trip to Eastern Europe.  I’ll post more about the trip before I go and as I travel.  For now though,  here is my itinerary. Budapest – Vienna – Prague.   I’m so excited.
