"A visit only started... and continued..." Italy by solopes

It's big country, as interesting as expensive. So, most of my visits were brief, until the holidays of 2004, when I took the family to Rome and Vatican, and drove to Sorrento via Naples, from where we visited Capri, Pompeii and the Amalfitan coast. Back to Rome, we took the ferry at Civitavecchia to Olbia, and spent a week in Sardegna.

My first visit to Italy was in 1979, restricted to the Italian Riviera, Milan and the northern lakes.

A long weekend took us later to Vicenza and Venice.

And work took me several times to Rome and Roccantica, but also Florence, Venice, Lake of Garda, and Bolzano.

So, Italy is a country still to be seen. But the world is so big, and time and money so small, that scheduling next visit is not at short sight.

Yes! I had a new visit, and will write about it. Soon!
