ciao!

i was in italy for 3 years... i worked for allied forces southern europe in naples and i lived in castelvoltourno on the beach. i saw all the "sites" and got pretty bored with the place quick... i DO like it there though and have gone back three times already... it is a beautiful and strange place-- the locals are so different... anyway, here's a few-- click here for the ones that didn't make it over... they are AWESOME climbing shots from the amalfi coast.... and also some from capri

guess where i am? this was before i went to see the christmas eve mass that the pope did... it was really cool to see that guy close up-- i touched his robe... i never though i'd be all wierded out by it since i'm basically jewish but it was still really cool.

guess what? this is the leaning tower of pisa! guess what?? this place is really boring! but hey-- you gotta see it once, right?

more

this is pompeii-- cool the first time but terribly boring after, like, twenty times-- so only go here once...
