Though we have disagreed about many topics, about Italy there will be no arguement.

My two years in Italy (near Vicenza) are some of the most vivid memories of my life. Being in Rome during the New-Year celebration, Venice in the night fog, Juliet's castle in Verona, riding the night express train from Padua to Naples sitting on floor, tosti, cappuchino, good(and bad) 'house' wines in the trattorrias, the art supplies shops, the cheese shops, the museum....sigh!-)

Wow. I had no idea you'd lived in Italy for two years. That explains stuff. :)

Happy Holidays, kitten....
