Hi Everyone,

After reviewing all of your great information and thinking about the large number of places to see and experience in each of the three cities, I'm going to travel to Italy only my next vacation and stay in one to two places for a much longer amount of time. There is so much to see in Florence alone. I think I could spend a week on the mosaics alone not to mention the museums and wandering the city streets. I'll be doing a London/Paris vacation this year, so I've posted a London thread. I'm sorry for inconveniencing you asking for Italy travel advice and then ending up with the decision that I should go another time when I have a lot more time to take in the atmosphere and many sites. I've kept your information and posts because I will use it. Thank you!
