    European Driving tour

    Hi guys,

    I am in Europe for 10 days in beginning of April.
    I have hired a car, as all we really want to do is see as much of the countryside and small stops as we can squeeze in. And I cant stand public transport......control issues

    Any suggestions of quick stops, or activities we could do within 1 day would be great......btw, I am travelling with my 2 kids, 15yr old girl and 5yr old boy.

    This is my route below.

    1. Paris
    2. Nurburgring (doubtful I will get on track, as I dont want to leave the kids to fend for themselves)
    3. Stuttgart (Porsch or Merc museum - not enough time for both)
    4. Zurich
    5. Monaco (probably staying in Cannes or Nice)
    6. Lyon
    7. Paris


    Cheers,
    Hog

    Yeah, I know. I am concerned about this as well, but everyone has told me the drives are not as bad as the distance suggests.
    We are not planning on actually being anywhere at any certain times, so I figured just seeing the countryside will be experience enough.
    The way I've laid it out, it is 2-3 hrs driving each day except Zurich and Monaco, where we stay 2 nights each.

    It just sux that my musts are the 'Ring, and Monaco lol....
