My wife's father is from Paterno, near Cosenza in the southern part. We
spent some time there and want to go back again.

We usually go for a week each in two locations. Last trip was Rosana,
outside of Florence, Santa Maria de Castelebate on the shore south of
Naples.

Close to Amalfi, Salerno, Paestum, Pompeii


We stayed here on two different trips

From here, it is a short trip to Pisa, Sienna, Asissi. Nice drive on
the Futa Pass to Bolognia.

We've also been to Venice twice for a couple of days each time. Nice,
but expensive and probably won't go back as we saw the highlights.

We usually have coffee/tea and maybe an egg for breakfast, then head out
for the day. Lunch is our big meal of the day as a nice restaurant.
Then we go back to the villa and dinner is usually couple of salamis,
cheese, bread, and the mandatory bottle of wine. I enjoy shopping for
those things at the local stores.


I wish I had been able to visit Europe. I did get to work out in the
Pacific and see some amazing things and I did stay in Mexico for a
while. I also got to see the foreign country of Californiastan while
I worked for an electrical contractor traveling from San Diego to North
of San Francisco. It's such a shame the way it's inhabitants are
treating such a beautiful and fertile country. ^_^
