Off to Europe for a few days!

You read that correctly! I’m off to Europe for a few days. Now that the Oscars is over, it’s time for me to take my post-Oscars vacation. Usually I go somewhere familiar like Florida or Connecticut, but this time I decided to go to Europe.

“But Adam, why Europe?” I can hear you asking. Good question! It all came down to price. See, a few weeks ago Delta had a glitch on their website that priced certain Europe flights way below what they should be. Because of that, I was able to book a round trip flight to Copenhagen, Denmark for $277, cheaper then flying to Florida or Connecticut. I’ve never been to Europe, so I thought this would be a good chance to explore, if only for a few days.

But after looking in to accommodations in Copenhagen, I realized that Denmark was quite an expensive place to stay,  so I booked a round trip flight from Copenhagen to London for only $65. I’ve always wanted to go to London! My return flight to Los Angeles includes a 1 night stay in beautiful Amsterdam.

So now my bags are packed and I’m ready for a solo trip to Europe. Like before, I plan to make periodic blog posts about my travels, starting with my first post of Copenhagen tomorrow morning.

Time to get some rest! Europe is a lot further away then I thought it was…

P.S. For those wondering how I found the cheap fare, I subscribe to a Twitter feed called AirfareWatchdog. They post when they find an unusually low airfare. Check them out: http://twitter.com/airfarewatchdog

    I will be reading. But I am sad you decide to not stay in Denmark. I hear it’s beautiful and the people are wonderful. Not so much in A’dam.

    I would have liked to explore Denmark more, but it really was a bit too expensive for me to stay there. I touch on this in my post about Copenhagen tomorrow morning. It’s a beautiful place, but with the dollar so weak I didn’t get very far with my money.
