The Italy Foible

We interrupt this program about retiring to Mexico to bring you a short tale on one of the OTHER FOIBLES mentioned above.  For a little while you will have to hear about our two-week trek through Italy to find my grandparents' villages, oh, and see some art, old buildings, eat lots of great food, and drink wonderful wine.

It's getting off to a rough start between the Icelandic volcano spewing ash all over Europe, and the British Air flight attendant strike.  We are supposed to fly into London Heathrow (on BA), transfer to Gatwick and fly to Venice (on BA). The volcano has shut down the airport for a few hours for the last two days.  Our flight is now at least 2 hours late leaving Seattle, but since it appears the plane coming to get us is now in the air, our chances of at least making it to London are improving.  Once there, who knows, but eventually we'll get there.

Check this site over the next few weeks for our brief sidetrip to Italy, then we will resume our normal Mexico programming!!  Ciao, Bella!
