Excited to Head back to Italy

Image
 Six more days until I head off on a new adventure.  This will be a first for me!  While I am traveling with the Rick Steves tours for the 2nd time, I will be doing it alone and without my European travel buddy Christine.  I am flying into Rome 2 days before our tour starts, arriving on Thursday October 7 and have exciting sightseeing things planned. Check the blog each day to see what fun adventures I had.  Then I’m joining the tour, with 25 other people, the evening on Saturday October 9!  The map of where we are going is pictured here. I am most looking forward to exploring a bit more of Ancient Rome, Pompeii and the hillside caves in Matera!  I am also looking forward to being surprised that something else will be my favorite part of the trip!   More next week.  I leave Wednesday Oct 6 out of Grand Rapids late morning, transferring in Chicago (ORD) then overnight to Rome.  Adventures here I come.
