About this blog

Greetings Family and Friends....We are departing on, what we hope is, one of the first 'trips of a lifetime' since Jim's retirement. We are looking forward to revisiting Rome and Venice...we are excited about exploring Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast for the first time and are thrilled to join our good friends Chepe and Maria on the Splendour of the Seas for a 18 night Transatlantic Crossing back into the U.S. Hope you enjoy keeping up with us! Ciao! XOXO - Jim and Steph
