  • Who to trust? Our first full day, started at the Accedemia-see 'The David'. We went online to look for tours. The price I was quoted for a walking tour and guide was expensive(from me).

  • Florence We arrived at the Contentiale- this is one of Ferragamo's hotels. They are a collection of modern boutique hotels-near the Ponte del Vecchio. We unloaded the car- headed to Avis.

  • Rome The cheapest way out of Zanzibar to Europe turned out be on a charter plane to Rome (400 euros each). It turns out the Italians love Zanzibar so there's several charters daily to Bologna, Milan and Rome. We were glad Posted by olin in Sinusoidal Planetary Circumscription | Aug 15, 2009

  • Tuscany Part 3 Lincoln is not so much a morning person-'Italian water' or not. The shower in our room has 3 knobs controlling 2 or 3 different spray options. It is very confusing- when you are awake- h Posted by Jcarrara in Julie and Lincoln's 1st Trip | Sep 2, 2009

  • Tuscany part 2 Our day begins early with breakfast- to be surrounded by Germans- nothing romantic with that language- as usual we are only Americans in the hotel- like we are in a fish bowl. Obviously, we are the only Americans contributing to Posted by Jcarrara in Julie and Lincoln's 1st Trip | Aug 31, 2009

  • In fair Verona... The most adorable, charming little city ever! Actually, it's not so little, and apparently, the second richest Italian city (after Parma) but Verona's historic center is spaced very close together, making it cozy and irresistibly cute.

  • Venice After a few u turns, we decided to leave te car in a car park close to the city. Options were to park in Mestro and then train it in, or drive to 2 closer car parks. Posted by Jcarrara in Julie and Lincoln's 1st Trip | Aug 29, 2009
