All photos from my June trip to Italy are now here.

Travelogue of some sort will be up in the future.

…according to Truman Capote, and I’d have to agree with him. I uploaded all my Venice photos to my album. This city is amazingly beautiful…

Next up, Rome.

I’m going on a holiday (or “hols”) in Italy from June 27-30. That’s British for “I’m taking a vacation in Italy.” I always thought “holiday” referred to Christmas, Easter, etc, but over here it doubles for “vacation.” Aren’t you glad I am here to translate this Britspeak for you?

I’ll be in Rome, and then Venice. Unfortunately, though, I won’t be staying in a 5-star hotel or buying $10 Cokes like these U.S. government employees! Damn, I should apply for a job at the CIA!
