Ciao Everyone!!!!!!!!!! I am back
Ciao, back again to the good USA!!! We had a wonderful time in Europe.... Everyone was nice when I asked for directions, of course,I have a lots of charm... 
the only one that was rude, was a sourface, arrogant bus driver in Paris that kept mumbling when I asked for directions , obviously he did not want to be understood, anyway, I kind laughed at his face , left the bus and took the metro to Montmartre.
Must go now,
Ciao,
Kismet

Francophile03,
When I go to Rome I always stay at the Hotel Parlamento...It is off Via Del Corso, walking distance to all the major sights,also if you desire to have the AC , it will cost an extra 11 dollars per day. It is a nice clean, safe place .
In Cinque Terre I made the reservation with Paganetto, at the moment I dont have the webb address, Gisella the owner is a wonderful lady, we rented the apt. for a week, a very nice and modern apt. with all the conveniences, washer, refrigerator etc...
In Paris we stayed at the Bonaparte, great location and price with the AC also. We had a triple room, quite large, with a fireplace, huge antique mirror on top, high ornate ceilling , a nice balcony, and a tiny refrigerator in the room. We paid 152 at night, quite a bargain , and breakfeast was included also. We stayed there 4 days...The remaining days in Italy and France we stayed with family and friends. My cousin lives in Avignon and my sister live at at Mejannes, a charming small village 45 km from Avignon.

Kismet: I'm sure you enjoyed that glass of wine on June 23rd! I thought of you that day and my birthday wish was "I wish I was sitting at an outdoor cafe in Manarola overlooking the Mediterranean drinking a glass of the Cinque Terre wine with Kismet!"
Since I'm also going back to Paris next spring, I look forward to your report on your time there too.
So far, it sounds like you had a great time; however, how could you not - visiting two such beautiful countries!
