Q1 Tell us about summer travel in recent years (can be overseas, day trips or home region) and what you enjoy about the season now

I'm hosting from North East England where I'm home briefly. Next week is London and Glasgow. Week after is India so I might miss some Sundays including next weekend.
I've been crocheting and relaxing

A1 #PTTravel I leave summer travel to the people who can only travel in the summer. I will do local or regional trips I can do in my car. For example, I will be going to @MLB All Star Game in Seattle, something Iāve always wanted to do.

A1 #PTTravel To be honest, I avoid travelling in high summer if I can. Places usually crowded, prices a lot higher ... and I don't like it TOO hot.

A1 When all Iāve got to worry about is our next walk/swim/drink/meal, I love the heat. 40Ā°C plus in Jerez/CĆ”diz/Seville this week but we still managed 10 miles each day. #pttravel

Last year, we went (as a family) to Majorca. This was my parent, sister, BIL & nephew. It was lovely, expensive and hot. I usually avoid summer but that one was lush

replying to @Txiki_Tales Despite being summer our flights were cheap and B&B hotels with pools just Ā£55-Ā£80 per night. Marvellous! #pttravel

A1: Spent last weekend in Edinburgh which was great. Always spend a week cycling in the south of the Netherlands in mid-July. But try to avoid the school holidays #PTTravel https://t.co/oxTtrDOxDY

A2 Iād love to do a Northern Spain road trip from San SebastiĆ”n over to Galicia, stopping at some of the small towns that are a little off the beaten track. #pttravel

A2 #PTTravel Somewhere in the Southern Hemisphere. It's winter there, but sometimes still pleasantly warm.

A2: I prefer places like Italy and Spain in spring or early autumn. Maybe somewhere by the water in Northern Europe #PTTravel https://t.co/gS82E59CFF

A2. I would love to visit Iceland in summer, purely for the mega long hours of daylight. If not Iceland then one of the other Scandi countries would be fun #PTTravel

A2 #PTTravel I have done some international trips in June, but usually Iāll stay regional anything I can do by car & not have to deal with the airlines. The airlines were never pleasant in summer, its really bad now.

replying to @CharlesMcCool @CharlesMcCool I'm staying put due to cost, crowds and because work trips have been regular and intense recently #PTTravel
