Mum, an active 75, said she would rather go north than south, so I set about planning a route that took us from Manchester all the way to Oslo.
We were away for 10 nights, our first-class passes entitling us to seven days of travel within a month, across the 33-country Interrail network.
First class generally gets you comfier seats with more leg room. Anything else is a bonus. Avanti may be unreliable, but it does excellent free first-class breakfasts.
Being lucky enough to possess healthy parents, I have not yet had to make decisions about their lives and so it felt novel to be entrusted with our itinerary.
