Been there three times.... Rome, Venice and Trieste. There'd be a few LCN'ers in the massive prison at Trieste. I'd say.

Probably going back to Italy next year - Venice, in time for the annual Carnival.

Anyone planning a trip to Venice? Well, check your luggage first. Starting next year, the city will not allow you to tow a wheeled suitcase.

Been to Italy 3 times, ok 1 doesn't count because we drove from Graz in Austria late one night to get pizza, just because the guy we were with had just gotten a new car for passing his driving test. The other trips were to Milan for a golf competition and then I returned there to a small town just outside called Stresa, a beautiful place on lago magiore. Amazing food, great people and places.

Went this summer, did a tour of all the major northern cities and then drove down to my families village of Mangone, in Calabria, and spent a week there. It was amazing. My father, brother and I walked down the road that my grandfather walked every morning, it was surreal.

Been there 4 times for soccer tournaments Enzo Ferrari Cup in Modina.

Have given Italy consideration for a place to retire at least in the summer months. But instead chose Berlin Germeny have an apartment there also have a Grandson there Handsome Henry and a daughter the communist Amanda
