Two days and counting

Rome, Italy
April 28, 2008

Good: We all like Rome a lot. It is a very livable city for us-good groceries, good ice cream, easy streets to walk along, and amazing ruins everywhere. We just seem to be big city people. We all agree this is a better fit than Venice even after losing internet in our apartment.

Bad?: Once again, no internet. The apartment owners do not seem to know why nor can they fix it. But truly it is a mixed blessing. We read and talk more when we do not have you tube to watch.

Surprising: And annoying... Air India has canceled our flight home. So I am in search of their office to get a new ticket on a different airline. Unfortunately they are not at the address that our travel agent gave me. So here I am at an internet cafe, hoping to track them down. For some reason, I am not too concerned. If worse comes to worse, we show up at the airport and they stick us on something. It will all work out.

We leave in two days-back to Whittier. We are there until late on the 4th. Oaxaca on Cinco de Mayo. Then we stay put for awhile...at least that is the plan. Sorry no pictures. I do not have the lap top with me since this was an unscheduled net stop.
