| 27th July 2006 Becky | - From: Weekend in Como Great stories Mel, love all the news. So great to have travel news as they happen rather than waiting till you get home! Gotta love blogging!!! Keep up the writting .. almost feels like we're right there with you. Take care, Bec |
| 26th July 2006 Cheryl | Support Group - From: Weekend in Como Hi all! Now is the time to consider starting a support group for Melanie to keep her going through the winter (i.e., the non-Italian season). Based on top level research conducted by reading her travel blog closely, we could each take responsibility for one aspect of her life. For example, to help her relive her trip, I could pretend I don't know how to reverse and have her push my car. Someone else could bring back happy memories by looking at her with incomprehension when she asks a question and talking really quickly in a foreign language. (I'm sure YOUR ideas are better than mine!) I guess the most gracious thing to do is ply her with pasta and tiramisu and say, "Tell me more"!!!! |
| 26th July 2006 Rhonda | Magnifico! - From: Weekend in Como Ha, that is my italian attempt! I love reading this! I am living vicariously thru you as we speak! Keep writing! I must see you when you return! Bon journo....ah....arevadercci.....ah.....eh man choco latah!! see ya, friend! |

We are so excited to hear of your charming escapades. Mommy wanted me to ask why you didn't just go to Switzerland, given how close you were! Have you found anything good to read in English or are you just reading in Italian now ;-)? P.S. Lately I have been preoccupied with riding trains too! XX Latif |
| 25th July 2006 Leanne | Jealous - From: Weekend in Como Hey Melanie: I love your stories and wish I were there experiencing this fantastic trip with you... maybe someday...?! P.S. You are a FAB writer - must be that English degree - lol ;) |
