Fordorites in Italy - May 2000
 

Any fellow travelers out there interested in arranging a Fordorites meet in May? (A la Monica of the red rose.) Our itinerary: <BR> <BR>Stresa - 5/12 - 5/14 <BR>Chianti - 5/15 - 5/19 <BR>Orvieto - 5/20 - 5/21 <BR>Cinque Terre - 5/22 - 5/24 <BR>Milan - 5/25 - 5/26 <BR>Venice - 5/27 - 5/30 <BR> <BR>Let us know if you want to get together for some great Italian food and wine!

<BR>Dayle, Would you believe we are arriving in Milan the day after you return??! Well, I hope some others can meet you and you all have a great time. "One of these days" I hope to meet some of you all. (ps, save me some gelato!)

Thanks, Cheryl! But sorry - we're going to eat ALL the gelato. First come, first served.

Hi Dayle, <BR> <BR>I hope you are successful in getting together with other fodorites in Italy! I would love to join you, but Tony and I will be in Germany the 1st 2 weeks in June. Email me at home and here when you return. I'd love to hear all about it! Also, if you do get a group together, get some pictures taken and I can add it my web page where I have a "Fodorites Corner" with photos of my get togethers. It's at http://sites.netscape.net/monicapileggi/homepage <BR> <BR>Ciao!

Q: How many Fodorites does it take to screw in a light bulb? <BR> <BR> <BR>A: All of them, provided the defective bulb is somewhere within Paris. <BR>

Bien sur!

To the top..any takers?

You beat me there by a month.

I love the idea but sadly we'll miss you by a couple weeks. <BR> <BR>5/4 - 5/8 Rome <BR>9 & 10 Sorrento <BR>11 & 12 Orvieto <BR>13 & 14 Sienna <BR>15 - 18 Venice <BR> <BR>Any others out there?

Dayle, <BR>I'm planning to be at the Italian Lakes generally (lodging in Lugano) from 17-23 May. Anyone else at the Lakes at that time, I'll be happy to schedule a lunch/greeting meeting. Looks like I'll miss you in Stresa by a day or two. <BR> <BR>T. Turnip, looks like we'll be there at the same time, but at different places. Any middle ground? <BR> <BR>By the way, this will be my first trip to these fabled Lakes; I'm checking them out to see if they compare well to my favorite Lake Geneva. <BR> <BR>Anyway, hope to see *someone* there!! <BR>suzann

I WANT TO COME !!!! <BR> <BR>Unfortunately, I'm dealing with health issues that have put a serious dent in any travel plans. Saluto! Have a glass of vino for my in abstentia. <BR>I am more an Italia-phile (altho associated with the notes of a certain city who's name I dare not mention. <BR> <BR>Buon viaggio! <BR>

Robin - hope you get better and on the road soon! Looks like everyone has great trips planned. Let's keep talking so those who want to meet within reasonable distances can do so! Monica of the Red Rose is working on Germany. Go travelers, go!

Just bring this to the top again as well as mine! Dayle you make me smile!

Just a footnote to set the record straight. I am female. Mom got creative, what can I say?! It has caused me all kinds of hassel, amusement, and interesting situations in my life so far. But that's another thread entirely!

For the Italy travelers...

I may be there in Venice at the same time as you. I"ll let you know.
