Funiculi, Funicula!

My writing on this site is not perfect.  There may be typos, and, at times, my sentences might be grammatically incorrect.  I am not aiming for perfection in the mechanics of writing.  My purpose is to share our experiences with family and friends in an imperfect and sometimes humorous way.  So, if you are looking for perfect writing please stop here.  Otherwise move on with the knowledge that somethings may be written poorly and some entries might be out of order.  If and when I have the time (which I probably won't), I will return to revise and edit.

Ciao!

Finally, after 9 years, we will be returning to Italy.  We will be taking this journey with Tom and Anne and Michael and Marisa (they, too, have waited 9 years to return).  It seems so long ago that we traveled the roads of this wonderful country and engaged ourselves in the culture.  We are looking forward to staying in Rome and Amalfi where we have booked a few tours.  Joy is everywhere, finiculi, finicula!

(At the end of the Postscript page there is a link that will bring you to a link to our Shutterfly Share Site where you will find our photos of this Italian adventure).

For those of you who know us and know of our travel adventures, this will come as no surprise.  The agent we used was Fleetway Travel out of the UK.  Tom found them through Travelzoo.  Apparently (to make a long story short and according to Fleetway) when we booked our travel to Italy we were supposed to tell them that we wanted assigned seats for our flights.  Needless to say, we found out the hard way.  We paid extra for the assigned seats from Boston to Dublin, but were told we had to get our seating from Dublin to Rome when we check in during our brief layover.  Let's see what happens.  Let the fun begin - it is another ADVENTURE!
