The 2013 adventure to Italy began with an attempt to be 'Italian'. First attempt: not successful ... we flew (red, white and blue) Delta; (0% Italian).
2nd attempt: much more successful -- we took the new Italo train Milan to Florence (percent 'Italian' increased to 50%).
3rd attempt - rental car ... sad to say ... Ford Focus!!!!! ('Italian' points took a dive to 33.33%)
Arriving more American than (born again) Italian didn't dampen our spirits; Barbara the Avis rental agent at the Foligno train station recognized us as we walked in the door, and as we pulled away the familiarity of the route to the Inn quickly returned. Driving through the gates of the Inn, the feeling that we had returned to our Italian home away from home was confirmed, as Mary and MIchael walked out the door to greet us.
