Italy Wrap-Up

Despite the disappointing day at the Amalfi Coast, overall we enjoyed our time in Italy and wouldn't mind returning again someday. Here are a couple more pics, one of the ceiling in the Map Room at the Vatican, one of a fountain in the Vatican, and one of a cute little Fiat.








Our favorite things:

1) The pastries (especially Meringue con Panna!)
2) The gnocchi and street pizza
3) The pleasant weather (except for the one rainy day)
4) The ancient history
5) The cute little cars
6) The bustling plazas in the evening, full of people mingling and strolling through the neighborhoods

Things we could have done without:

1) Dog poo all over the sidewalks
2) How the Italians like personal space - YOUR personal space
3) Seat-less toilets (although I guess I should be glad they had more than just a hole in the ground!)
