Wapping's Wanders 2013 - Number 1 - Easter

Herr Wapping Mr Wanderer will share a room with me. Can we doubbble it?

Aha, a plan :thumb2

I am 99% sure that will work.

Let's say we have a deal

Via another site I have Ian (and Mrs Bernie), too.
 
This Wander is now fully subscribed, with additions via PM and from another site.

I will lob up a list of everyone sometime.

All I need to do now is sort out our hotel for the first night and the routes.

That's it. Job done.

I have booked all our rooms.

In the end I settled on:

The night of Thursday 28 March in the Ibis in St Omer. I changed from a Logis hotel as (a) It was cheaper (b) Our relatively late crossing time (losing an hour due to the time difference) was making it awkward.

I am talking to the Ibis to see if it might be possible to reserve a space in the carpark. They usually won't but we shall see.

We'll have to find some scoff in the town, so get your skates on on arrival.

Nights of Friday 29 Saturday 30 and Sunday 31 March in the Hotel Petry which we used on the (very cold) jaunt of November last year.

What other news?

(1) It's Easter, so hotel rooms can be at a premium. I have secured ALL the rooms against my credit card. If anyone can't make it, PLEASE let me know so that we can avoid charges.

(2) I will work on some suggested routes over the next month and ping them up here.

(3) I will have half an eye on the weather. If it's raining I AM going. If it's deep snow in Luxembourg I'm NOT. Let's be sensible about it; it's the end of March so just about anything is possible. If it really is snowing I will talk to the hotels in good time and probably try to move the booking to some other weekend, later in the year. It's my intent for none of us to incur any charges.

Hello Richard,
Forgot to mention this, a couple of weeks ago we changed our train time-out, as we are going to go to the La Coupole V2 museum. So we will see you at the hotel ( if it is not snowing !).
If any body else wants to come along we are going out on the : 10:36

Thanks
dxtans
 
I hope Vianden is not as cold as last time as the scenary was good.

Roll on end March
