Organized tour with Contiki Tours. I don't like the on your own thing. Your bound to miss something.

Organized?

Oh yeah, Tommy is a regular capo going back to the motherland ;)

Tommy's motherland trip will include, Dublin, Shannon, Limerick and such. ;)

But seriously, congrats Tommy. I know how long you've wanted to do this. Gotta grab life by the balls. Well, you've done that in more ways than one. haha. Very happy for you.

Venice & Milan are amazing....

In Venice, would suggest studying up on the water taxis as that is the only way to get from place to place.

Milan - I spent hours at the El Domo alone

Purchase your books & plan your trip ahead of time as you do not want to waste any time.

Tommy,

JoAnn and I just did the Tauck Tour -Italian Lakes and Cities. We flew into Milan, went to Lugano, where we visited Tremezzo, Como and Bellagio, on Lake Como, then went to Venice, Florence, Siena and Rome. It was an amazing trip.

Call me and I will give you some hints.....

Also--need a referral to the product manager for dental imaging.

Thanks!

Enjoy Italy. My dad is there about 7 to 10 times a year on business and to visit our family over there in Genoa. Enjoy.

Phil, that was just wrong! Have fun in Italy.

Have fun on your trip to Italy.
I just got back from mine recently, I went to Rome and Capri and other little cities off the beaten path.
Unforunatly the dollar to euro value is pretty bad.
