Holidays

Probably take you another 4 weeks to get through the finger print queue.
I have been pretty lucky at Faro the last few years, I have had family in some of those viral queues and then a week later i've sailed through straight to the front of the passport booth, hoping a strike lucky with this nonsense not sure if they have a separate queue for families with young kids (He's only 3 so he wont have to do it)
 
Did it in October in the Canaries then the other week in mainland Spain didn’t need to repeat, so hopefully this will be the norm .
I've flown 7 times since they first introduced EES last October and I've had to do the fingerprints about 4 times.

Maybe it will be better now that it's 100% officially operational and you'll only have to do it once, who knows.

Been to the Canadian side of Niagra Falls, it’s Blackpool with a big waterfall, stopped at Niagra on the Lake on the way, that’s a beautiful place and well worth a visit for a few hours. Also visited a nearby Vinyard where they make Ice Wine, well worth a visit.
 
Vienna and Prague for us next month. Four days in Vienna, train, three days in Prague. Not been to either city before and looking forward to just exploring and relaxing.

Won't be cheap, nothing is these days, though BA flights from Heathrow at sensible times weren't too bad.
Call into the Hotel Sacher behind the opera house for a cocktail, class little bar in one of the great hotels of the world.
 
Tenerife a fortnight today.
It’s not the flights I’m bothered about it’s this bloody entry system.

Im a grumpy sod most of the time add airport queuing and i am 5 times worse.

Ibiza in June for us,hopefully the border staff have got into a fast routine.

Going to Crete in August,wish we'd booked our hols the other way round

Wouldn't it be easier just to live in Ireland ? :)

Hey ! My mate comes from Coleraine and goes to Rhodes every June. He has a caravan in Portrush too. In the Orange Order, but's a rag.
