I don’t think I’ve ever been so prepared for a trip before. I’ve been basically packed and ready for almost a week already and I’m actually looking forward to Penn Station because it gets me more near to Newark Airport which makes me that much closer to Rome... Since time seems to moving at a … Continue reading Rome in films

Dog days of summer
One of my favorite things about our most recent visit to the Cape was the fact that Jeter could come along. Actually, it was one of the criteria, along with an outdoor shower, that I considered to be a requirement when we were searching for a rental for the week. Hey, even a dog needs … Continue reading Dog days of summer

I absolutely love reaching for an accessory to finish … Continue reading German shoes (from New Paltz)
Things to love about Germany
We’ve been back for about 10 days and there are some really positive impressions from our trip that I thought to share. How about one for each day we were there? 1. Roads. I don’t think I’d mind paying a 19% VAT if the money went into highways and other infrastructure. We traveled a few … Continue reading Things to love about Germany
