Easter in Paris, Milan and Bologna - the planning begins



Flying has never been a great joy in my life. A necessary evil - I much prefer to drive or take a train. Which brings me to Easter 2018 in Bologna.

In order to arrive on 3 April, I could get a taxi to Luton and fly in a couple of hours. Or I could leave two days earlier and enjoy a few hours in Paris and then in Milan instead, as well as some great views from the window of a train.

Which is what I'm planning now. The last time I was in Milan was in 1991 and I'm sure this map would be useless if I was driving, or going further east into what this map was calling Yugoslavia. So, it'll do for a train ride through northern Italy and the guidebooks will help me decide what to see each stop on the way. That'll definitely include some art, history, landscape  and architecture.

Now, that sounds like joy.
