Paulo if you still read Fodors, Congratulations on winning the photo contest at Venice Word. I see you are now living in California. Maybe that is why you haven't been on Fodors much lately. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Please know that we all at Fodors miss your contributions!http://www.veniceword.com/v_photos.html<BR>

I looked at the site but so no sign of Paulo's name. Was that the correct link?<BR><BR>I hope you really did see evidence that he's alive and well. He was such a knowledgeable contributor, and so courteous and generous with his help and information. I was hoping that his absence was a sign that he was doing better things and not that anything was wrong.

Paulo,<BR>Where are you? We miss all your wonderful advice. Do fill us in on your CA experience. Perhaps you can come to some of the reunions we have.<BR>Cyndi

Is Paolo Rizzi of California the same as Paulo Rizzi of Brazil?

cmt: Paulo is cited as photographer on that delightful picture of several Santa Clauses in a gondola.
