Think On It

Remembering Gaeta

January 16th, 2007

The official trip report from my Gaeta vacation has been published today on Slow travel. It resembles in many ways what I published here, but there is less personal stuff and some photos not shown before. Go see it.

Any time you need a break from your tropical island, snowy fastness or busy metropolis, take a look at the many trip reports at Slow Travel and see the world! Italy is a large part of the mix there, but every continent is covered by the intrepid Slow Travelers. Hikers, sailors, drivers, they all show “what I did on my vacation” and some are better than the travel magazines. I have been stunned to see Rar’s shots of Bolivia recently.

Wanna go back and do a protest with me? Right after Lent, when we can be thinner? Then we can shop at the darling store I found. I can make the signs.

I’m up for it, haven’t been down there since 1996!
I can protest with the best of ‘em.

Used to be , in the day, one of the few places before the galleria di Sperlonga that ‘women’ go to cafes too..never got to the grotto. Unfortunately even after Lent my rotunditude will remain ever present, I’m learning to embrace it as my new evolution. But I’m wonderful at thumbs up or thumbs down in the fashion dept and they used to have a very nice Coin.

Judith,

Slow Travel Trip Reports and SlowPhotos is a great place to spend time!

Thanks for visiting my blog! I found another woman smoker on the planet! There is a topic for you… why smart, savy women still smoke in 2007?

Let’s see, maybe because we are saving ourselves from a heroin addiction? Because it is only one of our habits that are totally counter our cultures?
It is my only vice, or at least the only one available to me nowadays.

Hi Judith–great report and inspiration. Oh how I would love to spend 90% of my life traveling–everywhere. Question: How did your daughter enjoy her gift? I’m shopping for something similar for my son–who doesn’t appreciate my efforts at all!

Your son wants an Italian turquoise and gold necklace? Go, Jane’s son!
She loves it. It’s quite lovely and very different to American turquoise. We should get her to photograph it and send me the photo, no?
