Visiting European Countries

I am heading to Canada for a spell as soon as possible, which part are you going?

I have friends in Saskatchewan, my wife has friends in Vancouver, so i guess its safe to say we will be travelling around Saskatchewan, Alberta and BC but much as i would like to say asap the Covid situation elsewhere will likely dictate when, me i would go tomorrow if it was possible.

BC and Alberta are beautiful, sask is so/so, enjoy your trip, beautiful country

Im hearing parts of Canada apparently not coping to well with Covid at the moment mainly Quebec, i hope the government can get a grip otherwise that might see Canada off my to do list for this year .

France and Spain doing a lot better, our trip is on, yey!

So on seeing todays news from Boris, the only overseas Holidays allowed are to Green list countries, Amber listed countries can only be visited in an emergency situation such as urgent business reason or pressing family needs, then Red list is a no no, its looking more and more like nowt abroad for this year.

Technically you are incorrect on the Amber.
UK gov is asking you not to holiday in Amber countries but at present it is not illegal to do so! See link below

Maybe at present it may look that way but look at trends and vaccination rates will look better July and August.
We are going to France and Spain inAugust

It looks like travel to Germany has been quashed...to prevent Brits bringing the Indian variant into Germany. It’s not over til the fat lady sings.

Yes this was announced all over the press today, but we are not going to Germany so who cares!
On a lighter note,
Are you suggesting Ms Merkel is fat? I doubt I want to hear her sing but she can for 3 months, the good thing for us is we have a flexable ferry ticket and have no need to book anything else.
France and Spain happy to have us Brits although at present they continue to be on the UK amber list, so should avoid unnecessary travel there but not a legal you must not go!

No. You are being realistic.

But we wont be sitting on crowded beaches so much of France and Spain to see.

The move comes after Spain lifted travel restrictions on British visitors, with the country’s prime minister Pedro Sanchez saying Spain will be “delighted, extremely delighted” to receive British tourists again.

Spain is lifting its restrictions on travellers from the United Kingdom beginning on Monday.
