The Plan Update
We are both regretting buying the Balkans flexi-pass but there isn’t a thing we can do about it. So we’ve been trying to work out how to use it as much as we can while making our April 5th deadline in Lyon.
Right now we are still in Sofia and will stay a total of 4 nights. Then we are going to a tiny place called Melnik an then over the border to Greece to somewhere and then north west to Nis (for a night) and on to Belgrade. Then it gets all question markish.. Until we get to Venice.
Ever heard of easyjet? I have and I really haven’t heard much that is food- apart from them being cheap. Unfortunately not many airlines fly into Lyon and our train research (iRail app) shows trips in excess of 30 hours from Venice’s Santa Lucia train station. So we are going to brave easyjet in order to get to our car pick up point. Wish us luck!
Why the regret about the rail pass? Shame that didn’t work out. Also, have you made it to Croatia? Please tell me you have… or will…!!
Easyjet aren’t all that bad, just don’t expect any frills. Or service. Or, possibly, a seat. It’ll get you a-b, usually. You get what you pay for.
Hope you are both having an excellent time otherwise.
