Ahhhhhhhh,NO! I would be forced to drink more red wine than I should as my tolerance level is not as good as it used to be when my kids were that age. Have a wonderful trip!

Any last minute suggestions? We leave tomorrow! YEAH!

I am a gourmet cook so always bring back ingredients. Then I make dishes at home. Someone mentioned pistachio pesto. Yum! Very, very easy to make at home. Same with other things mentioned. Can be cheaper, too! We bring back capers and olives and sea salt.

Anyway, we also buy books so we can re-live various aspects of our trips such as history or scenery.

I hope you enjoy Sicily as much as I did!

I am so excited I can hardly wait...now if we could just skip the 8 hour flight with a 20 mo. old, it would be perfect!

Bookmarking in prep for our trip in mid-November. Thanks for all the ideas - I love finding gifts that are unique to the area!

swalter, I hope you get a chance to post back about your trip. I am eagerly awaiting a chance to go visit my sister who moved there over the summer.

Have a great time - buono viaggio!!
