Weekend Travel Section Roundup

Video travelogue from a 21 day tour of Italy. The tour was hosted by Grand Circle Travel and included 5 days in Rome, 8 days on the Amalfi Coast and 8 days in Tuscany. Only having to move 3 times was a definite plus. The tour group consisted of 41 people. The experience was outstanding. Our tour guide, Emmy...the food and wine...the wonderful art, towns and people...made each day a memory to treasure. Italy moves high up on the list for a return visit.

It's a soul-stirring journey and a stroll down memory lane called "A m'arcord", which means "I remember". A real holiday to unwind riding on the original Vintage Vespa and Lambretta of the 1950ies and 1960ies along singular roads of Southern Italy. Meridianosedici has six regions in its program, places that uncover their unaltered authenticity and the leisurely Italian art de vivre: Amalfi Coast, Puglia, Maratea, Cilento, Calabria and Around Rome. Beautiful sceneries alternate with subtle culinary pleasures of the Italian world-famous art of cooking.

This is how it Feels like to be in Roma

www.romanlife-romeitaly.com We were out in Trastevere Rome, one Friday night in Mid December, and found this guy performing in the side streets. He was wearing a hat made from the beak of a stalk and had an array of shakers, hooters and maraccas attached to his legs and arms. I love characters like these, we were the first to stop and about 5 minutes later there was eventually quite a crowd. We gave him some money, and immediately after he whipped out his own CD that he had produced!Brilliant. You gotta love Rome, something and someone interesting around every corner!---
