Italia

Twelve years ago yesterday I returned from Italy.  I can hardly believe it has been that long. 

What a great experience it was and one I will never forget.  I regret not learning the language but I hope to rectify that soon.  

I have grown and matured a lot since then.  I continue to think back to those wonderful days and of the wonderful people I met there.  Friends for life, they will be.

Here's to you mia bella Italia.
