		<description><![CDATA[It is late afternoon on the fourth of our five days in Paris.  As always, the time has flown by in this beautiful, enervating city.  It’s been 22 years since I was here, but my memories of that trip have stayed so vivid that it seems to be much more recent. 
We have been frequenting the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In some ways, Paris looks just like I’ve imagined – or to be more accurate, like the Paris I’ve always seen in books and movies. Charming old buildings with wrought-iron balconies, trees lining every street, sidewalk cafes…it’s pretty awesome. We flew in from Bologna on Friday morning and got to our apartment at around 2:00.

		<description><![CDATA[After Firenze (Florence), we stayed in Parma with our friends the Dorigo Family.  This town north of Florence offered another local Italian food cuisine, much of it using the Parmesan cheese that originated in this town.  While I don’t eat Italian food at every meal at home, checking out the local cuisine as we traveled [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ 

There is not a Starbucks in site anywhere in Italy.  In fact, there are people in Italy who have never heard of Starbucks.  For some reason I find this information comforting.  Last year while traveling in the UK, Starbucks was nearly as ubiquitous as in the US, at least in the larger cities.  The coffee [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are lots of good options if, by chance, you need to eat in Italy.   You can order pasta, pizza, paninis&#8230; lots of good stuff. Now as wonderful as this all is, none of it compares to the faaaaabulous desserts! If you&#8217;re looking for gelato, it&#8217;s not hard to find. There is gelato on almost [...]]]></description>

Well, we have been seeing and doing so much that, gosh, we’ve been too exhausted to be blogging!  The photo above was taken in the Tuscan town of Montepulciano.
Tour guide and B+B owner Claudio showed us the best of Renaissance Rome on Tuesday and Archeological Rome on Wednesday.  He was truly worth his weight in [...]]]></description>

Above is a photo of the Millennium Bridge across the Thames River, connecting the area next to the Tate Modern Museum (where this was taken) and Globe Theatre with the other side, including St. Paul’s Cathedral. The Tate Modern is housed in an old power plant facility. It is seven stories tall, and has some [...]]]></description>
