Now that it seems like we are staying in England, I want to get into the habit of spending 2 - 4 weeks somewhere a bit milder in the late fall and early spring, spending the winter at home. For the last few years we have gone away in April - once to Nimes (Languedoc, France), last year to Sicily, this year to Puglia/Basilicata. All three were good breaks with sunshine and warmer temps than at home (except for two days of that "mistral" in Arles before we went to Nimes).
I don't want to go too far - not to the Caribbean or Florida, for example.
For the spring trip, I am thinking Greece next year (or Israel).
For the fall trip, the possibilities that occur to me are: Nice (southern France), Sicily, Grenada or Seville (southern Spain). Some place where we could settle into a nice vacation rental, do some exploring and some walking. Any suggestions or comments?
@Chris and @Lisa in Ottawa - I know you both have been in Nice in the off season. How did you like it?
