Les amis,

This was the perfect trip. Countless hours were spent researching, organizing, and planning the logistics, transportation and accommodations. Our execution was seamless and our choices of accommodations could not have been better. 

For 24 days the rest of the world disappeared for us. If there are more beautiful regions in the world, we have not seen them. 

We enjoyed several meals that we shall never forget, because they went beyond the gastronomic frontiers of anything we had ever experienced. The people in both countries were absolutely wonderful. 

Here are a few picture samples. I took over a thousand photos.
