Hi, we have decided we would like to go away for xmas 2010. We would really like to go away for 2 weeks but prices seem really expensive to me.
We can go any time from the 14/12/10 but want to be away for xmas day.
We are quite easy going as to the destination but dont really want the Canary Islands or Egypt, altough weather does need to be hot and sunny.
We can travel from any London Airport.

Can anyone beat this quote or come up with somewhere else?

Many thanks!
