Hi Guys and Girls
We have been waiting for this time to arrive and it is finally here!!. After much blood sweat and tears (and thats just the bank manager !!) We leave this Friday 2nd May for our journey to Arillas. Catching the Ferry from North Shields (Tyneside) to Amsterdam, Driving through Belgium, France Germany Switzerland and Italy to Catch the Ferry from Venice to Corfu. Arriving in Arillas on the 5th May. Phew!!!
We are soo looking forward to meeting as many of you as possible throughout the summer and hope we can provide you with some great memories of your holiday either having experienced a relaxing massage by your pool or on the beach, (being mobile i will come to you) or maybe you would like one of Marks personalised pictures of your favourite Arillas view or other photo/picture to take home with you.
I would like to say a BIG THANK YOU to all of you who have already expressed an interest in having a massage and/or booked an appointment, and look forward to seeing you. If anyone would like to get in touch re any queries about which massage is right/suitable for you then my number is 07903 456237.
Bless you all and safe journeys.

Have a safe journey and see you in June! I have already stored your number on my phone :)
Hui Mark and Dee,
Really interested to hear about your drive from England to Arillas. We have been thinking about the same trip for some time and are now starting to think seriously about the timings, ferries etc. Would love to hear about your journey and any tips for when we do the same.
Regards
John & Ann
Hi John,
Will let you know more once we have done the journey. A little bit of info for now, if you decide to go through Switzerland you will need a Vignette for the car. This is a sticker for your windscreen to be able to drive through the country.Cost at the moment is £17. AA route finder gives a travelling time of 12 or so hours from Amsterdam to Venice, or if we hit traffic 15.
Hope that gives you some stuff to think about.

Safe journey and best wishes.
Have an exciting and safe trip markanddee.
I have spent over an hour looking at possible routes and they all look wonderful, especially the journey across the Alps. I would love to do the journey myself one day.
I am looking forward to a detailed report of the trip and seeing some of your photographs.
See you in July and Bon Voyage.
Here is snapshot of a possible route.
