It’s a chilly rainy day here in Georgia. Cold rainy days always remind me of Venice. Probably not the image of Venice most people have! I’ve been to Venice many times, most always in the winter when it’s raining (the best winter trip was my honeymoon). This has more to do with being cheap, than having bad luck. Venice in the winter is not at all crowded and incredibly cheap compared to the summer. I’ve become an excellent navigator during the Acqua Alta, by the way! But, that’s not my point here.
Since Epiphany is coming up (and we already celebrated it here in the US! Those Wise Men are getting so fast!) I thought I’d post an Epiphany song by my father.
My friends at Florentia (the best guides in Florence, by the way) posted this picture taken the other day in Florence. Wish I was there!
I am thrilled that today we are announcing a pilgrimage to Italy with the crew from The Catholic Guy show!
I am very excited with the news that Benedict XVI is expected to sign a decree approving John Paul II as venerable as early as today, December 19.
My flight over was just surprisingly smooth. I slept for about two hours and watched The Proposal and The Hangover. By the way, I love that Delta now uses the 767-400 ATL – Rome!
