Europe Trip
Ok, so i've probably mentioned to you all that I will be voyaging through Europe for a month and the trip is coming up fast. Here are is my rudimentary itinerary, please let me know if you think I am missing anything that I should absolutely see (within the countries/cities listed) and any ideas you have that might make my trip any easier. Grazie!
April 11-14: London (most likely crashing at Ian's and/or cheap hostel)
*Day Trip to York and/or Bath (stopping at stonehenge on the way)
April 15-19:Arrive Paris by way of Easy Jet meeting mom and 2 sisters at CDG airport and continuing to unknown hotel. Planning on seeing:
Louvre, Eiffel tower, Picasso Museum, Catacombs, Open air markets, other stuff i'm sure.
April 20-25: Train from Paris to Florence, florence for 3 days, then renting car and driving to Cinque Terre, Pisa, Tuscany (Volterra and San Gimignano).
April 26-28: Rome! Dan Tudor arrives on the 28th. Julie goes back to NY.
*Not sure what i'm doing here yet but I hope it involves renting a vespa and visiting the little neighborhoods, i'm mostly excited about foooooooood.
April 29-30: Venice and possibly Trieste
May 1: Me, Mom, Dad and possibly Laura go to Croatia, the island of Krk, city of Baska where my father and grandfather were born. May be visiting Motovun in Istria where my cousin Ranko lives, here is a link to the amaazing pictures of these places:

May 4: Mom and Dad go home and I continue on to Greece, which turns out to be terribly difficult from Croatia. I will be taking a train to Milan and Flying into Athens where I will meet Glen and rent a car to take us to the Peloponnese Peninsula where we will camp and stay with locals eating lots of feta and olives, drink lots of wine and ouzo(i'll have to get used to licorice eck!) and sitting on the beach.
May 13: Glen goes home and I go back to London
May 16: Fly home early in the morning, back to reality.
I'm extremely excited and I want this to be a great trip so any advice or information of any kind that you have about any of the places that I plan on visiting would be much appreciated.
