To the OP, I see you are spending some time in interlaken, if you have time you may want to visit one of the other Swiss cities.
I am currently finishing up a 1 week tour through Switzerland, there are some really nice places here:
Zermatt
Arosa
St. Moritz
Lucerne
Lausanne
Bern
Basel
Zurich
Didn't care for Geneva much, would skip it and spend more time in Zermatt if I was to do it again.

Nice man, almost like mine this year:
Paris
Normandy
Bruges
Amsterdam
Zurich
Munich
Salzberg
As others have mentioned, 2 days in Venice is more than enough. I recommend taking a train to Florence, arguably the nicest city in the world. I had a great time there. Also definitely take a day to see Versailles. It's an important part of history and also beautiful! I was like 14 years old when I went and even I was awed by the magnitude of this place.

So check it out...after all the train travel, this is how many actual hours we'll spend in each city. What do you think...Rome seems like a lot.
Brussels 29
Amsterdam 51
Munich 53
Interlaken 63
Venice 34
Rome 122
Nice 42
Barcelona 97
Paris 75
London 60
Am I spending too many hours in Rome/Barca?Last edited by knickerbocker; Aug 9th, 2009 at 09:33 PM.

Lisbon or Nice, France??
I could potentially work my itinerary out where I could substitute Nice for Lisbon.
Should I do it?
