In answers to other questions, it's the weight of the luggage which will present the problem to my partner. Once we pick up our lease car, then it shouldn't be a problem as I will be able to do the lugging from car to accommodation. Stairs without luggage should be doable as it wasn't a problem last time we were in Paris. We are intending on doing a fair bit of walking.

We emerge from Europe at Frankfurt, about 8.5 weeks after our arrival.

Looking forward to the trip. Still a lot of planning to do, but that's half the fun of travelling!

Cheers!
