Chuck,Thanks. I wonder how easy it is to do once I am over there? If you get the overstay or extended visa i assume that covers all of the schengen countries.

I live in the US but it's probably the same.I do not know your current country of residence but I can tell you that as a Canadian, it was necessary for me to apply for a residence permit/long-term VISA in Spain (i.e., to remain in Spain for more than 90 days), and this application had to be made while I was still living in Canada.
I hear that. When the fun's over, if I don't head up to Britain then I will probably be in Paris (leaving via CDG) a couple of days early, just in case. Can stay in an Airbnb and maybe even get a pic of the Eiffel Tower.If you plan to return make sure that you don't overstay!!
You're including the Paris stay in your 90 days, right?I hear that. When the fun's over, if I don't head up to Britain then I will probably be in Paris (leaving via CDG) a couple of days early, just in case. Can stay in an Airbnb and maybe even get a pic of the Eiffel Tower.

Good advice. Can't hurt to try.Of course ... if you don't ask for sure you won't get.
I would suggest you try while there.
Yes, of course.You're including the Paris stay in your 90 days, right?
Correct. You can stay no more than 90 out of the last 180 days.In some places you cross the border, stay a day, then come back and the Visa starts from the day of entry. Not the Schengen zone.
I think I've got this. Had I ever been tempted to overstay my visa... I no longer am.Correct. You can stay no more than 90 out of the last 180 days.
Since the max Schengen stay is 90 days in a rolling 180-day window, a break outside the zone puts time back on the clock.
As the previous poster already said, this scenario will give you an overstay of 30 days! I put your example - 60 days in, 30 days out, 60 days in, starting on 15 April 2017 - into the Schengen calculator and got this result:

Is Gibraltar in the Schengen Zone even though it is British territory?A woman, who had overstayed her Visa, went to Gibraltar in an attempt to game the system.
No - it is not part of the Schengen Zone. For more detail see the "Special cases" section of this Wikipedia article: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_member_state_territories_and_the_European_Union#GibraltarIs Gibraltar in the Schengen Zone even though it is British territory?
Thanks! Excellent article; Gibraltar is part of the European Economic Community, but is not in the Schengen Zone.No - it is not part of the Schengen Zone.

Thanks for a very helpful post. I've examined my passport, and I have a stamp with an arrow showing my entry last summer, but none showing my departure 90 days later. I left on a ship out of Barcelona, and I don't recall passing through Spanish customs on boarding..
That's what they will look at when you want to come back.
- Arrow pointing to the right in the bottom left corner in a rectangular stamp for entering the Schengen area.
- Arrow pointing to the left in the bottom left corner in a rectangular shaped stamp with rounded edges when you leave the Schengen area.
The Schengen area does not (yet) have an automated system for registering entry/exit data.
