Infinite Wisdom
Well, things are actually working out as planned. So far the only problems have been that Debbie was sick(Completely better now, sorry for scaring you Barry and Sharon) and the fact that we were not sleeping at night and were tired in the day. I think that our schedules have now gotten used to the new time zone so everything is A-okay. We are leaving for Naples on a train tonight at midnight for an eight hour ride. I think that it should really just be a blast. Then we spend three nights there before going on to Amalfi where we will be spending four nights. Then we are going to get on a bus, then a train, and then hopefully end up back in Venice for our last three nights. When i say it like that it doesnt really sound like we are going to be here for long enough. Anyway, we thought that we were not going to have a place to stay once we were back in Venice, but hostelbookers.com has saved us again and we will be staying at a budget hotel, Hotel Giovanni or spelled something like that. We have been eating really well. I may have mentioned this before, but our hostel in Venice so far was not just a room but a small apartment. When i asked if they had something available in a week she laughed at me and said everything was booked for a month. Anyway, we are just killing time before our long ass train ride. So off for some shopping (makes debbie happy).
Anyway, mUch love of course from both of us.
Seeya later
MAtt and deb
Not that the blog wasn’t already worth its weight in Hafnium isomer, but the connection to travelers in Italy and Hungary is pretty priceless. Yet more delight and breadth, but also some peace of mind.
Thanks for checking in, you two! Looking forward to pictures and more detailed descriptions (including of that wonderful food — take notes on one or two of the more memorable feasts to share upon your return …)
Ciao!

‘ So off for some shopping (makes debbie happy).’ That’s perfect. Glad she’s better and I’m envious of your adventurousness.

And I want some solid information.
1. Are you learning Italian?
2. Does your Spanish help you communicate?
3. Compare and contrast the relative friendliness of people in Italy, Nicaragua, Spain and Acton.
4. Does Italian food in America taste like the real thing?
5. Have often do you have to defend George Bush and his policies?
6. Do you miss us?
7.How come Joe hasn’t wished you all well on the blog?
