You have so many great posts that I'm surprised you were able to narrow it down that much. I think this post was the one I identified with the most… only my love affair is with France and this time of year is the worst for me. Since I want to think I love France the most I'm willing to concede that you probably love Italy the most. I'll send good vibes in the hopes that you'll be reunited soon.Michelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01301036929944380967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11777429.post-62800224915486897792007-11-07T20:56:00.000-05:002007-11-07T20:56:00.000-05:00andrea, how did i miss this post? i think our love...andrea, how did i miss this post? i think our love scale is is like, super grand and big alike, :)) <BR/><BR/>xoj. vorwallerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10323751440023885041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11777429.post-68753889191327446702007-10-27T02:38:00.000-04:002007-10-27T02:38:00.000-04:00Great post.

I used to date an italian and there was nothing better than being shown around by someone who knew the country.

Your post reminds me of how I cried for weeks when we returned from Italy the last time we went. I ran into my neighbor (an old lady who was born and raised in Italy) about a week after we returned, and she asked me how my visit was. I started uncontrollably bawling on the spot. That country is unbelievable.sulu-designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14997610829986070303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11777429.post-82216859747163947832007-10-18T11:36:00.000-04:002007-10-18T11:36:00.000-04:00Aw, love, you've done it yet again - a perfect pos...Aw, love, you've done it yet again - a perfect post :)LeShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14980509507170565763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11777429.post-52152177048537471422007-10-17T19:35:00.000-04:002007-10-17T19:35:00.000-04:00this is absolutely fabulous. i really miss living...this is absolutely fabulous. i really miss living in spain and being able to travel...ALL OVER. i've been thinking a lot about going back to europe, maybe taking a break from this lifestyle to enjoy another. everything here is just so fast and life is so pressed the time. it's comforting to know that elsewhere in the world, life is slow...and different, and beautiful and dying to be enjoyed.<BR/><BR/>ciao y salud.bonkosi alyssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02246654540913708180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11777429.post-39247436116835797532007-10-17T18:43:00.000-04:002007-10-17T18:43:00.000-04:00thanks, everyone!reverb, hello! must revisit your ...thanks, everyone!<BR/><BR/>reverb, hello! must revisit your italy photos soon... are they still up on flickr? so good. and I'm still envious that you were able to spend five whole months there! that's the way to do it. will gladly share the tie for love with you. :)<BR/><BR/>anonymous, the camera that came back from the dead was our little canon powershot A610. the LCD monitor cracked and we thought maybe we'd rather sink the money it would take to have it repaired into a DSLR. in the end, we sent it off to canon to have it repaired and have been happily shooting with it ever since. great choice for the money, lots of great features, fairly easy to use, very portable... highly recommended! <BR/><BR/>anonymous (the second one), ahhhh, honeymoon in italy. perfection. secret magical place is right.<BR/><BR/>olympiaway, cinque terra! oooohhhhh! dying to visit there. dying to see that. and I think florence was my favorite of the big three. which I didn't expect at all-- venice was amazing and rome was fantastic but florence...? wonderful in a thousand different ways, inexplicably my favorite.<BR/><BR/>tracy, I imagine italy in june is marvelous. hope I get to find out for myself someday soon. :)<BR/><BR/>hannah, I would LOVE to meet the quiet brother.
