    Hi there..

    My mother and father want to go away next January and havn't a clue where to go.

    Bit of Background:
    My father only travelled/flew for the first time in his life 5years ago when we went to Finland to bring my sister to Lapland, and then the next time was last January when they went to Austrailia to visit our cousins(it was a present for his birthday.)
    Since Austrialia he must have gotten the travelling bug, as he's the one who suggested they go away again, which came as such a surprise to us!:)

    Criteria
    They want somewhere warm but not roasting..good for the bones and what not:D and not a sun holiday, he'd go mental doing nothing/lying on a beach..he needs to be doing/looking at stuff..
    He's a farmer, very plain eater, doesnt drink or smoke, work is his life.
    It needs to be January, as that's the only time he able to go away as its quiet farming wise.

    My mother was thinking maybe Netherlands (it being a farming country, he could go look at how agriculture is there) or perhaps Dubai, modern cosmopolitan city.

    All suggestions on where they could/should go are greatfully recieved!
    Thanks in advance!!

    Firstly it'd be a bit chilly in Holland in January I'd say!

    What about Rome? Loads to do all day, not too expensive and the weather would be ok.

    Second Italy, my folks went to Naples (among other places) and loved it and they are not much for travelling until more recently either. I'll try and find out what else they done.

    Ya, Italy sounds nice alright..and it's not to far away(which would suit them even better!)
