The patio is the perfect place for early morning coffee or winding down at days end with a glass of wine.

Recently my husband and I had the luxury of spending a month in Italy. Although I have dual citizenship, it was my first trip to this beautiful country.
All we knew was that we would take trains to get around, hire a driver to tour the Amalfi Coast and rent a car to explore the hard to get-to areas. Also, we did not want to do anything that would require a purchased ticket. Instead we wanted to spend all our time absorbing the towns, the food, the countryside, the culture. (We relied on Google Translator A LOT!)
Often people ask for itineraries and hotel recommendations. Our situation was a little different in that pretty much every hotel was booked a day or two before as we weren’t sure exactly where we might end up. Seems like the “shoulder season” has shifted from September to October so do your best to book well in advance. (Also pack binoculars!)
ROME – 2 nights
Amalfi Hotel (on a noisy busy street but terrific location)
ORVIETO – 2 nights
Many people have asked about our Locaboat canal trip June 24 through July 6, 2016 in France. Here are my notes. They are not too detailed, but just enough to get you exploring for your own trip!
Our flight arrived at 2:30 PM in Paris. Took about an hour thru customs and collecting our luggage. $16 taxi to hotel. Oceania. Beautiful pool & bar in the lobby. They speak quite a bit of English. Saw that flight crews like this place too. Small room but big shower, wonderful water pressure and very comfy bed and pillows. Walked into town. Beautiful church and gardens. Dinner across the entryway at Nautical. Had a perfect dinner w an extraordinary bottle of Bordeaux! Tomorrow is Sunday so the town bakery is closed so we’ll have to wait for our first Parisian croissant.
