Carolyn and I just returned from a wonderful, three week, adventure in Italy. We were in Rome the first week, the second week on The Amalfi Coast. The third week was spent in Pompeii & Tuscany, with a small Tuscan apartment and a rental car, exploring the hill towns, castles and wineries.

If you are interested, a slideshow for each week can be found here:
