Seat back screen: Over Iceland on way to Greenland.
More hints: 1) I have driven in England, Ireland, Scotland, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Austria, Germany, Liechtenstein and Switzerland. The European drivers do drive fast, but they are good drivers. Aside from driving you can also hire a car and driver. The trains are fast and comfortable. We have taken them in Scotland, England, Spain, Italy and Germany. Clean and on time the whole of Europe is held together by rail. If you are only going to the heart of a city use the train. 2) A digital camera is better than your phone. I use both, but downloading a chip into my computer is a good deal easier. 3) Buy a museum pass. In most cities you can buy a pass that includes all of the important sites. The benefit we like is not waiting in line. The lines of tourists are long, you flash your pass and spend time in the museum or atop the Eiffel Tower rather than standing and waiting. 4) There are pickpockets in New York and Seattle too. When in large cities you need to be aware. Go on YouTube before you go to see what pickpockets are like and how to protect yourself from them. 5) You will see a good many Subway Sandwich shops and McDonalds. Look for a small cafe with only locals in them. You will be glad you did. 6) Stores generally close on time. In the U.S. closing time means locking the door and cleaning up. In Europe closing time is locking up and gone home. 7) Remember that in many European places everything closes at about 2 pm for Siesta. 8) If bored in Rome of Vienna (not sure how this could be) take a cab somewhere. It will raise your blood pressure, 9)...
