Places we've visited in Italy
 No matter how many times you have seen it in movies or TV commercials, the real
thing is more surreal and dreamlike than you can imagined.
With sumptuous palaces and romantic waterways, Venice
is the most beautiful city in the world. It is built
on water, a city created more than 1,000 years ago by
men who dared defy the sea,implanting their splendid
palaces and churches on mud banks in a swampy and treacherous
lagoon.
 The birthplace of the renaissance, the ultimate expression of Italian art and
culture, admired world wide. Florence, the "Athens of Italy"
and the key to the Renaissance, hugs the banks of the ARONA
RIVER. Folded among the emerald cypress-studded hills of
North-Central Tuscany.
 As a center of Christianity, Rome has a vast wealth of beautiful and interesting
churches.

Street Food in Paris
The quintessial French street food is the crêpe
- a thin pancake served with just about
any sweet filling you can imagine, from sugar to chocolate
to cream to strawberries. Near most sightseeing attractions
you'll find street carts selling crêpes
with sugar or whipped cream and also don't
forget to try the Parisian hot dog.

You've immersed yourself in
culture all day and you wan a night out on the town.
The hottest spots are near Menilmontant and Paramentier, the
Basille, and the Marais. The Left Bank is definitely a lot less
happening.
On weeknights, people are usually home after closing hours at
2 am. but weekends mean late-night partying.
