I don’t buy into this Alps thing at all.
The bod tells us that he has 14 full days between getting off the boat and getting back onto it. Of these 14 days he has allowed two full days to get from the Dutch terminal to lets say the top end of Spain / bottom end of France; let’s call that the Pyrenees. He knows what he can do, so let’s just accept that. That leaves 12 days. He then tells us two days to come back; let’s just accept that too. That gives him his 10 full days, in Spain. Even if we cut off two days to increase his crossing of France and back to three days there and three days back, that leaves him eight full days in Spain. That is longer than many bods get who take the ferry to Santander and back.
The RiDE magazine has several suggestions for 10 day and less jaunts. Even a 10 day suggestion could be shortened to eight with a bit of imagination.
Come on OP, before this lot have you going to the Eagle’s Nest or Zermatt (we have already had the obligatory Millau) or Scotland, tell us which way the wind is filling your sails.
