    I try and avoid the Sun/Heat. Went to Spain with work a few weeks ago and it was 40 degrees. Ridiculous. Look at a map of Spain it is always the hottest region in Spain. Not enjoyable for me. I’ll stick to alpine climates at Easter.

    Went to a quiet part of Corfu in May. Pissed it down and was still out of season, so dead rather than quiet. Actually struggled to find a taverna that was showing the climax to the Premier league. We were all inclusive, so just ate and drank for a week

    Next Friday - meeting the gang in pub carpark before heading through to the ferry in Hull, the gateway to Belgium, Luxembourg, France (spend the night) before heading to our base in Austria (via the wonderful B500 in Germany), several trips to the various passes in Switzerland and Italy already planned. Family holiday in Turkey (done) and Majorca to come - this retirement larks ok!

    Austria base (minus snow I hope)

    Stay on Lido.

    If not take a day trip there. Chilled place, reachable by vaporetto from San Marco as part of city transport network , or even direct from airport by boat if you are feeling flash and flush.

    Nice big underpopulated beach there even if sea is a bit meh.

    You can pay silly money for grappa by Nardini are the governors for me.
