Remember me 
During the initial planning of our trip to Italy, I figured Rome would be just another big city and I wanted to spend more time in the countryside. It was really only after reading Angels and Demons that made me want to spend a little more time in Rome, so I could retrace the book and see the sights in person. We allocated three days/two nights stay in Rome and I was actually thinking that may have been too much.

I couldn't have been more wrong.    more »
For the next portion of our Italy trip, we visited Mount Vesuvius and the ancient Roman city of Pompeii. This was an amazing experience.   more »
Okay, so our trip to Italy was over two and a half years ago, and it's been a year and a half since I posted the first set of pictures from Italy, but there are still lots of great pics from the vacation. In this edition, I've posted pictures from our day trips to the Amalfi Coast and the island of Capri.   more »
It's been a loooong time since Sara, Sonja, Jeff, and I got back from our two-week Italy vacation last May/June, but I've finally found time to post pictures from the trip and relate a few stories....   more »
Took me over a week to post something since I got back from Italy - been a veeeeeery busy post-trip period.  I'm only now getting back to normal.

What a great two weeks it was in Italy: the food, the scenery, the history... I shot about 3GB worth of pics; it's gonna take me awhile to get it all sorted out and posted.  I'll save the story telling til I get the pictures up.

Anywho, great trip but it's also good to be back...
