Lisa has been great to deal with and I highly recommend the company.

If you are interested please contact Lisa directly. I am not sure if I can re-coup any of the cost if it is re-rented but I know it is high season in Florence - she seems very booked for that month.

Hope that helps someone out there!

Oh no, Dawn....are you canceling your trip to Italy?

yes, Ncounty I am... I just think it is for the best right now for a variety of reasons. I am trying to decide WHERE to take dd now... thinking NYC and Washington DC for 14 days -

I'm sure she'll enjoy those as well. I was just telling DS yesterday on our flight back from Utah that I would take him to D.C. someday. His eyes lit up. And we discussed New York as well. They are the same age, I believe, and he was excited by both those destinations. I mentioned the Natural History museum and correlating it with the movie Night at the Museum. He said he will enjoy it if none of the animals come alive.

I am so sorry to hear this.
Wishing you the best.

I am selfishly excited as the prospect of you visiting the east coast, especially DC!
