I'll be back in Europe in late October. Having taken all the trouble to get over there, I'm going to take a week to vacation after the work stuff is wrapped up.
Where would you go?
Things I'm looking for:
Easy to get to from Germany or Poland - I've got a stop to make in each of those, so it has to be an easy next hop from there.
Cheap - Being in two start-ups leaves the wallet thin.
Fun - Because this is a vacation, dammit.
First thoughts:
Tallinn, Estonia
I had two days in Tallinn a couple years back and wanted more. It talks to me on every nerdy level, from the medieval walls wrapping the old city and the 16th century themed restaurants and trade guilds, to the ever-present wifi anywhere you go.
...or...
Egypt, The Valley of the Kings and Giza
My last trip was cut short just before I would have made this stop, and I've regretted it since. Cairo is a surprisingly cheap flight from Berlin. And the Egyptian antiquities have always had that fascination. And what a fascinating time to visit that country! Bonus points: Unlike Tallinn, Egypt wouldn't be freezing in October.
Which of those two would you visit? Or perhaps another stop?

Have you ever been to Berlin before? I'm sure you will love it there. 
Where else are you heading on your trip?

Not really. Most kids get their stuff online rather than through the school. I wish I'd done that.
