Thank you, Manuel! It’s the great food that you guys have - they are so addictive! Seriously though, I am amazed at the warm and hospitality of the Italian people. The staff at the Locanda Orseolo where we used to stay are some of the nicest hotel people I have met anywhere in the world - and that’s why we kept going back there, until they closed their doors. They treated us like family.

Great sets Bobby. Italy is my second home. The last time I was there was in October before this darn virus.
My Wife and I were supposed to be there for a few weeks in May, and again in September this year with my children and grandchildren. The May trip is obviously off, and I fear the September trip will be as well.
Still, we can travel there virtually through images such as yours. Thanks for posting.
