Destination Italy, first stop Rome! Although hoping to get at least a couple of hours of sleep (actually I was hoping for 4-5), that is just much harder than I thought it would be.

Once again I am astounded with the fantastic transportation systems in Europe, particularly the trains. We had a 2 ½ hour train ride from Rome to Milan and it couldn’t have been more pleasant (well, other than the ear-wax guy).

Train travel is one of the best modes of transportation, hands down. However, just as on airplanes, you do encounter some strange and rude passengers.

Blogging in the car on the way to Chianti today (as Carl is cruising along at 150 km per hour).

On our drive from Santa Margherita to Gaiole in Chianti we stopped in Lucca, as several had recommended.

Before we left Scottsdale, some new friends of ours happened to mention that another couple that are members of our club own a winery in Chianti. As a result, they coordinated a tasting and tour for us during our visit.
