I went to Italy for a week. A cousin of mine donated to the church where his grandparents (my great grand parents) were married. His donation is for the restoration of a crucifix and other parts of the church. As a "thank you" the church will install a plaque. My cousin also organized for the gathering of Montefalcione cousins, and a great lunch.
Unfortunately, Mike was unable to accompany me. And, though I was "all travelled out" for this year (or so I thought) Mike made sure I was able to go.
Every flight was delayed, and (I confess) I was a bit nervous about driving in Naples, and in being in an area up in the mountains where little English is spoken. But despite (and probably because of) those factors, I had a fabulous and magical journey.
