Autumn Rail Holiday 2025

Leave a comment

This year we are undertaking a rail based holiday to Italy and Spain.

We will start on the Cornish Riviera Sleeper to London, followed by a Eurostar trip to Paris. The rest of our stops will be Milan, Naples, Palermo, Syracuse, Messina, Rome, Barcelona, London and finally back to Penzance.

It’s not all trains as we will be travelling on two overnight ferries.

We have also pre-booked to see Leonardo’s Last Supper and The Vatican.

So if you want to follow our adventures we will start to blog on the 30th September.

Rest Day’ish

Our last full day in Kissimmee. Max really wanted to do the Pandora – The World Of Avatar ride but all week it had queue times of 90 minutes or more. I had found out that the parks were opening an hour earlier due to the Labor Day Holiday so a plan was formed,  Mark would take the kids early to get on the ride, before the crowds and then go to Typhoon Lagoon water park. They would return for lunch and a rest before we all returned in the evening to see some fireworks.
