Heading to Rome, Italy in a few weeks...So far, i've yet to book a hotel online; i usually do so about a week before i go......i know it's going to be a different trip this time because coming with me is my father who's 72. I've always wanted to bring him somewhere besides Las Vegas that old folks here in Hawaii care to do alot..so finally he gave in ( i added we might stop by las vegas on the way home---not!).

I'm just browsing thru an old Italy book that my brother gave me from his past trip to that country and it's making me all excited. Given the strong euro currency against the dollar, i think 4 days in Rome is just about right to explore the city and its surrounding towns, if time permits..

Hopefully, may this trip inspire my dad to explore and see a few more places in the near future while he still can....and i'd love to play the tour guide!

Ciao!
