First trip to Italy, I let a travel agency book my flight. Thought they would know better about connections , etc. Not true. They set up a connection from Atlanta to Pisa through Paris.(1 hour) If your flight was on time, you still would not have enough time to go through customs and find your next gate in a place that refused to speak ...  Leer Más

Built in the 15th Century. Hand carved wood beams supporting the ceilings, which had to be twelve feet high. So pretty! I think it had 7 ...  Leer Más

We parked in a small piazza, got out of the car and found our lives in Italy were forever changed by the medieval village of Civitella. High on a hill, it commands a sweeping view of the Valdichiana, which was the reason it was built around 1000 AD as a fortress town to protect Arezzo against attacks from Florence and Siena. The present ...  Leer Más
