I wish I felt sorry, Americans, but I don't

Current gas prices in Northern Italy: 1.29 Euros for 1 liter.

If you do the math, Northern Italians pay $6.58 for 1 gallon of gas, and I don't hear any crying... be grateful for paying just half that, America!

Italians also pay 60% taxes...think about that the next time you get a percentage of your paycheck sent to the US government...

Yikes! Peggy - we have been in Zegreb for a day & I have woken up too early (not fully adjusted just yet) & was wondering if you know Italian. The people here all speak English, but they said in Italy it isn't so much that way. Croatia is better than expected in many ways ... I am very much enjoying our trip thus far.

I love seeing your great pictures. I have to say, you look like you totally fit in amidst the Italian landscape. Both classic beauties. I can't wait to hear about more of your adventures. You are making me very jealous!
