I will have the opportunity to be in the eastern Mediterranean region of Europe in early January and am looking for recommendations for some of the best places to spend a very low-key holiday during the winter season. Details inside.
I've got aroughly a week to spend in the area with Mrs Potato and the young spud. For health and child reasons, intense, non-stop tourist site hopping isn't practical this time, though the occasional plaza/colosseum/cathedral/seaside vista/etc would be welcome.
Ideally, the best location would...
- be worth spending roughly a week in
- be easy to walk around
- have good food, and plentiful coffee
- have an agreeable winter climate (Cool weather is ok! Pure misery in rain form all week is probably not)
