Had a nice couple of days in Bruges. Cheap flights and basic but decent hotel near the train station. Cost £95 each!

..went on my son’s stag party not so long ago, so didn’t do much in the way of sightseeing but it’s a lovely place. I get the impression it hasn’t changed much since the 1940s. The Jewish Quarter is very pleasant.

As eggs says the Jewish Quarter has loads of bars and restaurants, our favourite when we were there in February was Omerta, bar with 32 taps. Also really liked C K Browar, just North of the square, great choice of beers and food options and very reasonable.

might be doing a 3 day weekend in Cartagena this week before THE BIG SUMMER...

Leaving Bogota one day after Colombia's first WC match and arriving in Cusco the day before Peru's first WC match, doing the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu* then spending another 3 days in Cusco to recuperate.

A week back in Bogota to pay the bills, make sure nothing is shut off before returning to the US. One week in Colorado, including Denver and Estes Park (area where The Shining was filmed, though not staying at that hotel). We'll be hiking (her thing) and stopping by multipe breweries, including Oskar Blues (Dale's Pale Ale) and Odell Brewing Company (my thing).

After that 3 weeks in Oregon. A couple in Portland, might try to catch a Timbers match before a couple days in Bend, Oregon (and Deschutes Brewing to complete the Hat Trick of my 3 fave) and to scatter some ashes.

Return to Bogota in time for one of my friends from the US and his wife to see some of our new home.

Phew.



* Inca Trail... underestimated this. Saw Bogota at 2,600 meters and MP at a little lower. Thought "Not too bad." Neglected to comprehend the hike in goes UP and DOWN, UP and DOWN mountains going as high as 4,000 meters. Done higher, Cotopaxi in Ecuador we did 4,500 to 5,000M, but was only a "short walk" and not 8-10km a day up and down.

Hi all.

May I ask what sites/companies you can recommend for travel from Greece to the UK in September to possibly catch an Everton match?
Not sure where to begin.

Thanks
