Internet's expensive here, so I'll keep things short. Unfortunately we haven't been able to upload pictures in awhile, and I think we won't be able to until Paris (sometime after Sunday June 24th). There are LOTS of pictures to upload....tonnes of great adventures.
Rome was wonderful, but like any big city, it's nice to get a break. We decided to take our break in the tiny village of Corniglia (pop. 240) in the Cinque Terre (pronounced CHINK-weh TAY-reh) region of northern Italy, just South-East of Genoa along the coast. The whole region is stunning and has lots of great hikes....5 villages to explore that take at most a few hours to walk between. There are a fair number of tourists here, but they're a different breed...there are no giant tour buses full of monkeys, and the rule of the 20 minute walk gets rid of most of the irritating ones here (hiking is pretty much a necessity for our village). We have a wonderful little apartment with a kitchen, so we've been going to the markets and making our own delicious meals. And did I mention that it's surrounded with vineyards?
Sunday we head to Paris (possibly after a brief bouillabaise stop in Marseilles), where we will meet up with Sanaee! Stay tuned...

That all sounds just lovely! I am glad you are all having a great time. Looking forward to the pictures when you can get them on. Hugs to all!
Wow! I've been living your adventure from the lonely seat of my LAO desk... :)This site is great! You'll have to keep me posted on the do's and don'ts of Paris as I'll only be there a short week and fear I'll miss out on something good. C'est la vie! Safe travels all!
