Italy in my dreams
Some friends of mine just got back from Italy and they were raving about their trip. I must confess that I have never really thought about going to Italy, but hearing about their adventures really changed my mind.
They toured vineyards and saw some of the old country. They had suntans and smiles on their faces. Their pictures were out of this world, like something you see in a magazine. I have wanted to go to England, Ireland and Australia, but now I'm adding Italy to my list.
They said it was fairly easy to find a translator to spend a lot of time with them. And many people could speak some English, but I am still going to try to learn some basic Italian. I think that really shows that you made an effort and that you don't just expect everyone to speak English. Americans already have a bad enough reputation as it is...
So now I'm trying to figure out when I can make this trip. I think I'll get some new brochures and check out the charter trips to wine country.
