Actually it have been 2 holidays, one to Iceland and one in Canada.
I think Iceland is an extremely interesting country to visit due to its nature, and I could (maybe I should) have stayed more days to explore even more wonderful things. I had luck with the weather, the 3 days were although sometimes a bit cold perfect for doing the excursions.
What did I like most?
What did I dislike most?
- not a lot, but the hotel was a bit far from the center, so had to walk a lot.
Which activity was best?
- the day-trip to the south, the glaciers and volcanos.
Best overall day?
Overall score?
- 8,5 out of 10. That is very good, but I have seen even better places with an even nicer mix, like Alaska and New-Zealand.
And what about my second Holiday to Nova Scotia and New Brunswick?
What did I like most?
- almost everything, but especially also the extremely friendly people. I have had only very pleasant meetings. Together with all the other stuff makes it great places to be.
What did I dislike most?
- nothing really, although one evening in the Rossmount Inn was rather noisy, yes I am whining … :-)
Which activity was best?
- I would say Cape Breton, but also the visits with the real estate brokers. Although they were “commercial” of course, they were all extremely helpful and not trying to sell anything
Best overall day?
- Cape Breton National Park, with the bear and the many dolphins, but also the scenery in the park itself.
Overall score?
- 9 out of 10. Not 10 out of 10? That will be reserved for the hopefully once in a lifetime experience at Antarctica.
Next Holiday?
- high on the list …. British Columbia (Canada), South-Africa, Norway (the north part), Australia, but it could also be the Netherlands, as traveling, the way I do it at least, is expensive :-(.
