So. I want to go to Europe. The only way I'd be able to go is if my dad went with.
My dad wants me to convince him to go. He wants me to basically compile a list of things that he would enjoy seeing in Europe.
So what is there to see in England, France, and Italy? Places to go, things to see ... what stands out?
(Also, my dad is not an art guy. He's a computer, planes, and food guy. Your basic nerd. Museums would probably bore him.)
