Although we don't have much of a travel wish list any more, we can certainly come up with a few ideas if, say, my brother Clay offers to meet up somewhere for a few weeks. I plan, and he'll drive. That opens up destinations that otherwise we avoid because of our usual reliance on trains and buses.
We'd already booked a Danube river cruise for the end of June, and we'd be going to Paris afterwards. For months, I work on an itinerary where we can use accumulated frequent flier miles, take advantage of Clay's driving skills, stay within a reasonable budget, deal with a fair amount of luggage, have great weather every day, then get to Germany without much trouble to start our river cruise.
The winner: the Italian island of Sardinia. French Corsica is just a ferry ride away, so we add that in too.
