5th Planning Session - March 2015

The weekend of March 20-22, Tom and Lisa flew down to Dallas to fine-tune the trip and to attend the Dallas Opera's performance of La Boheme.  We worked all day Friday on the distances to drive each day and the sites to see along the way.  There were quite a few more Rhone Valley wines sampled.  On Saturday more research was done on the Rhone Valley.  There are a lot of wineries and good wines to choose.  Tom has been given the assignment to research which wineries to stop for tastings.  We know he is up to the task.  As we had some extra time, Lisa and Debbie researched and booked the hotel for our first night in Milan.  It is in a perfect location for walking to all the sites we want to see.  We were very happy with our find.  We will set up a time in July to book the rest of the hotels.  The trip is really coming together now and promises to be another trip of a lifetime.
