Oh, I just saw the November. Change that to 3 or 4 sweaters each ;-)

TexasAggie: This is off the actual post subject but we are leaving for Italy in September and want to do the same trip you did, which includes Cinque Terre. How did you break down how many days you stayed in each city? Thanks.

Snowflake814 - good luck and from what I have been told by experiened travelers to Italy, 1 24"-26" suitcase each is realistic with a carry-on. You do not sound feeble and weak so I do not feel it would be difficult for you to lift a suitcase with the help of your husband. I am 50, a woman, weigh 125lbs. and lift a fully packed 26" suitcase alone because my husband cannot lift due to a bad back.
