Wow, what a wonderful site. I was in Italy first time, in nov 09 (the trinty Venice, Florence, Rome) I absolutely fell in love with Florence and God willing I AM going to return for at least 3 weeks. What a wonderful city I felt so “at home” We had the opportunity to go up to Fiesole to a restaurant. The people were very friendly. the art and history was just to overwhelming to take in in 3 days. another quaint city to visit between Florence and Rome is Orvieto, wow, just so fabulous. Can’t wait to return. Wonderful place to visit. I would love to have a 2nd home there.

I also had the opportunity to travel to Seoul Korea for 13 days with a former employer. The food was really fabulous as was the culture and the locals. Koreans love to feed you and I was a willing participant

Kelly,
TELL me about it! I’m sure I over-idealize the time we spent in Italy, but it really was amazing and continues to be life-changing. I say we’re fortunate and blessed to have great memories like that. Many, MANY people live entire lifetimes and never have great times like we did — so I’m all for reliving good memories!

Ciao bella,

Thanks for linking to my website and sharing your photos. My, how many times I boarded that bus, which stopped right outside my apartment building, to go to the train station.

I know I’m living in the past because I still have your Firenze address in my BlackBerry. And I still have my Italian mobile number , along the with the Italian mobile numbers of Stacie and Susan, the Bikini Chef, in my BlackBerry as well. I can’t bear to delete this info for I would be deleting memories.

A presto,

Kelly
