I think the pool did close at 6.

Our guides were Marco and James, who were both wonderful. They went straight from our Bella Italia trip to the June 18th Viva Italia. I thought the hotel in Sorrento was fantastic, and it was my daughter's favorite hotel anywhere, ever. It sits on a hill above Sorrento, and is very modern -...

We are back from the June 10th Bella Italia!! Fabulous trip - I can't recommend it enough. I'll try to get to a trip report, but I'm swamped with work this week. If you have any questions though, please ask and I'll respond.

My daughter and I are on the June 10th trip. Leaving Wednesday - 3 days in rome pre-trip. So excited and sooo busy. cant wait to be on the plane!

RSM, how nice was that! I'm hoping that there will be a lot of gelato that is nut-free, because if my daughter cant eat the gelato, I swear she'll get on a plane and fly home herself! She is planning on living on pizza and gelato. Paddles, thats great that your son isn't allergic to almonds...

Hi Paddles - I cant believe our trip is so close! I look forward to meeting you. I'm stressing a bit too - its just so crazy with finals, sports and graduation, not to mention getting my my own work wrapped up before leaving town for almost 2 weeks. We will be in rome for 3 days before the...

Anyone else having sticker shock??!! My daughter and I are going on the June 10th Central Italy trip and airfare from Denver is unbelievable. I was hoping to get a one-stop, especially on the way home, but we are looking at about $2,000 per person. I'm not sure if waiting is a good idea, but...

Hi Paddles - glad to hear there are other folks going to Italy with us! Unfortunately i dont know any other people who are going, and I've been a little worried that we wouldn't have enough. Where are you from? We're from Denver. We are doing 3 days in Rome before the trip - can't wait!

I think the heat will get worse in july and august, which is why we tried to schedule for as early in june as we could. I've been to Tuscany in May and it was beautiful, but even then, Florence was hot and crowded. So I would expect crowds in all the summer months. Not much you can do about...

So excited! Booked the Central Italy trip for June 10th for my dd13 and I. Thanks for all the input, everyone. This trip just seemed like the best combination of activities, plus I have never been to the Amalfi coast. We are thinking about adding on a few days in Rome beforehand. Do you...

Hi everyone. My daughter and I are planning a trip to Italy next summer, and are considering ABD. I have some questions I hope someone can answer. We are thinking of the Central Italy trip bcause I have never seen the Amalfi coast. Also, it sounds a little more varied than the...

Thought I would share a less-than-positive experience . . . My dd just turned 11 and is allergic to tree nuts. we just took our third cruise on the Magic June 13th. The first 2 cruises were fabulous in terms of the wait staff and head servers attentiveness to the allergy issue - just as...

Ally has something too. She was fine on saturday, but started feeling bad last night, then threw up this morning- right after she got to her first day of camp!! so after being away from work for more than a week, I was able to be there for all of 2 hours!

Hi everyone!1 thank you so much for the gifts - they were wonderful and you all are so talented. We finally made it home - very long day at MCO - feels good to be home, but kind of sad, you know? I wish I could have rebooked on board, but with the economy, things are just too uncertain. We...

There was definitely lobster! And the lobster I received was much better than in either of my 2 prior cruises. Otherwise, the food was kind of meh. I thought the dishes were well conceived, but - just my opinion - over-sauced and under-spiced. Hope that makes sense. Palo brunch was...

Hi everyone - I'm at home working on a big brief that needs to be filed before I leave, and I cant stand to read it FOR ONE MORE SECOND, so here I am:) I'm almost packed. We have one big suitcase with clothes, a smaller one with snorkel gear, shoes, medicine, sunscreen and god knows what else...

For those of you who have obtained passports recently, what was the wait time for regular and expedited? thanks so much!

I'll be at the Radisson the morning of the 13th - getting ready to board the Magic:banana: what would be the best place to see it?

hi everyone! Too funny Donna . . I just cant wait for the drama of a teenage girl . . . sigh. Love your FE Denise - expecially the names - the script looks really good. Hopefully I'll finish packing today - waiting for Ally to get home from vacation with her dad so I can wash her clothes...

Oh, why are girls so hard??? and how come even though we were girls, we still don't know how to make it all easier!!! Ally made it all through 5th grade with 2 really good friends (yes, a threesome for a whole year - seems impossible, no?). Things were getting a little weird with the dominant...
