lorettajonaki Grazie tante, Peter. Yes, I fully agree- it has been life changing. Look at Booking.com as your search link. Have used it for 90% of our bookings, change filter setting from price low to high and then screen the reviews. They also advocate promptly and effectively when necessary. Love to you and Lindy

Peter Happy Birthday John, It could be said that you've been living the best gift possible for the last three months, ending with a hopefully enchanting week in Roma - where I will begin my journey in May. I'm just hunting for an apartment to rent in Trastavere. Peace & Love, Peter

Lindy Enjoy every last minute! I've loved reading your posts and looking at the pictures. Lots of love, Lindy

Maria Grazie mille caro nipote! I have looked at some more of your photos and they are just amazing! Some are good enough to paint on canvas. I am so happy for you to be able to visit such wonderful places, as well as being with our lovely relatives (our link to our past!). Love to you and Loretta xxxxx

lorettajonaki Maria, Buon Compleanno. Wishing you a joyous birthday today and a beautiful family Christmas. Have also sent you an email. All our love Jonaki , Loretta & Jesse xxxxxxxx

lorettajonaki Hi Peter & amp and Lindy & amp, great to hear from you both. Yes, we have had some great times but every muscle is starting to hurt- worth it though! In interlaken with Jess and more snow predicted on the 25 th. We do not know how we are going to adapt back to the routine of life. Have a really happy Christmas and N.Y. Our love to you both xxxxx

Peter Nelson Hi John & Loretta, I hope this message displays. Sounds like you're having a ball. Have a happy & hopefully white Christmas. Peace & Love, Peter & Lindy

Rita Hi yes Bologna is so beautiful. i wonder if you found the beautiful window hidden in the wall that looks over a canal like in Venice. THere are so many beautiful things in Bologna which appear when you live there. I hope it is still glorious. Photos please! Good music scene there too...lots of jazz. Tomorrow you will be in Greece on the anniversary of my mum's birthday. Enjoy all the family there and the food. Please update photos of Bologna and Greece as soon as you can dying to see familiar sites and people. Lots of love. Hope you are relaxing a little more now.

jeanette swanson Hi loretta Thanks for the email. Sounds like your seeing some great places. Been enjoying looking at the blog. Great news about Jess. Take care and stay safe. Jeanette

lorettajonaki Hi Ritula. Is there a more beautiful medieval city in the world than Bologna? I doubt it. Now I understand why you loved this place. Family must have been the sole reason for returning!!!! Wow, this city is so mindblowingly Middle Ages intact
