Wondering after how you top that last entry vacation.
Any more plans?
We went to Italy in September and returned with Covid. All those Italians and tourists crowded the streets and no one there (except us) was wearing a mask. Got cured with Paxlovid (the treatment for us old folks).
But I DO miss Idiot He's wonderful, entertaining words and photos of their adventures.
Hope they are OK these days.

Re: How are the Idiots doing these days?
Hi Diana!
I have also wondered how the "idiots" are doing and will try to get in touch with them. We also went to Italy this autumn (Western Sicily) and had a wonderful time. Sorry you got covid. I've had it twice myself and just got my new booster last Saturday. Masks are mostly a thing of the past here in Ireland but most people will put one on if they have any symptoms and tests are cheap and easy to get in the shops so we try to stay up on it. But you put tons of people together in crowds and on crowded planes and yes, it still moves around a lot.
Where did you visit on your holiday and how long did you stay? That flight from the west coast must be quite the haul for you so hopefully you were able to spend some good time in Europe
Take care,
Chris

Hi Chris!
We have made many trips to Italy, over the years, mostly exploring the smaller hill towns. This time we decided to revisit some old memories. We spent 3 weeks: Rome, Orvieto, Perugia, Florence, Milan, Verenna (on Lake Como) and flew home from Bologna. I had Covid symptoms on the plane coming home, so I didn't get it in the airports, probably just before. Italy is FAR FAR FAR from California, but lie-flat business class makes that possible for a couple of old people with bad backs.
Hoping you will hear from the Idiots. He is a writer extraordinaire.
