Hi Dave, just a general ? about your trip, did you make reservations at all of the B&B's or did you "chance it" in the smaller towns? (I realize that the castle at the end was reserved for sure and great suprise by the way <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/circle.gif" alt="" /> ). loved your whole tale, thank you for sharing...
