Hi you all.
Our time to come to Portugal is near. But we have a huge issue to contend with and i hope some of you with more experience can give us some ideas.
We have a cat i picked up a couple of years ago that has bed legs and i dont' even know how old the cat is, and we also have a German Shepherd that is now about 10 years old. We are debating the best approach. We are thinking of taking the queen mary 2 to england south hampton. And from there that's where the trouble begins and i would like your suggestions if anyone can offer them.
We are looking at about three options.
1- My wife found a company in England that will rent us a motohome so we can drive from england to portugal and they will pick it up in portugal. It's about $5000, not including gas and other expenses. We would then stay at campgrounds in France, Spain and Portugal.
2-My wife also found a company that will fly us all like a charter for about $10000.
3- I rent a motor-home from Portugal pay my cousin to drive it to england, picks us up and then we all drive back to Portugal. This is the cheapest, but i am not sure if my cousin will be up to the task. He told me no problem, but when the times come he could change his mind or have a problem that will not allow him to help us.
So, what i would like from the experienced people in this forum, if you all are so kind to offer some suggestions or ideas, would be much appreciated.
