My vacation

Some quick comments:

1. Alitalia sucks.
2. Rome hotels cost way too much.
3. Rome is a beautiful city that can be walked at leisure.
4. St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican is the biggest room I've been in other than a domed stadium.
5. The Euro/dollar exchange rate is a problem.
6. I like cruises.
7. In Sicily, anyone wearing a dark suit and wearing sunglasses scares me.
8. According to the English-speaking cruise hostess, Austrians sleep in the nude.
9. Italians don't understand elevator etiquette.
10. Good coffee is hard to make.
