Travel Plan

Current Plan

To occur in March 2011

For the duration of two weeks

To be a Road Trip

To run to Moscow

Notable considerations

Trips in Europe are liable to be easier to arrange. Trips elsewhere are liable to require visas, etc. (which depending on the country may be easy or difficult to obtain). However, aranging a visa-equivalent for America is extremely simple (all that is required is to register online). However, car hire will be necessary. Also note that some of Eastern Europe may also require visas. Trips this side of the Iron Curtain are likely to be much nicer to drive in, in terms of road quality, vehicle quality and other road user driving quality.

Proposed Amendments

• Destination to be the USA Proposed: RG Aye: MP Nay: PB,MD,EH,BW

< Rev> I am disappointed to note that this amendment has gained the support of Mr Preece

• Trip to be be a Train journey from Moscow to Vladivostok Proposed: PB Aye: Nay: BW

<Ben> Much as I do condone the Trans-Siberian, I think that travelling it in two weeks would involve lots of sitting on trains and not much of seeing Siberia. 

• Trip to be a Road Trip in the Balkans. Proposed: PB Aye: BW Nay:

<Ben> Driving issues notwithstanding, this has potential.

• A slightly less adventurous approach of a Road Trip around some of Western Europe (perhaps Italy, Switzerland, Austria, etc.). Proposed: PB Aye: Nay:
