Europe looks tempting

[petemc]

So big news is that a publisher in LA wants me to write a book on HDR. They're going to give me a nice advance so I'm thinking I need material for the book outside of Liverpool. Its been on my mind for a long time now, travel Europe. My plan so far is simply to sell my Corsa and get something a bit comfier for the trip. Something with aircon. I'd like to visit Paris and Austria at least. Its tempting to get the train instead, to save driving all that way but in my heart I know its those little moments between places that can make the trip. Also its a fair lot of stuff to lug around with me. This is all I have so far on the idea. I just want to get in my car and go there. How realistic is that? Can I just drive off with little planning and wing it all? No hotels booked or anything. Just going where the road takes me. My Dad is being like "Where will you stay? You need this and that. What will you do for this? Its a very long way." Its getting me down. Its something I feel I should do. Its not often someone gives you the money to live a dream.
