Brings Back Great Memories
I love your blog. It brings back all the memories of Rome and Tuscany. I'm glad you're having such a great time. I always find the hardest thing is getting back to Oz and wondering where the wine is at 11:00am!

Anyone read Italian, think it has somethng to do with Anzac Day

About Italian....
Hi Sand First of all it has been so fun reading ur experiences in such a grat country like Italy. The message is just about the instauration of the democratic rule in 1948, after WWII, as well as a message for Italians not to forget the strict rule of a fascist government.

Tuscan Travellers
Hi Gayle, Tuscany has not been as expensive as we had thought. We have all managed to keep to our budget so far. Clarkee is enjoying the food even though he is vegetarian!!! (We think??) To become a Gully Traveller you just have to be a sponsor for the next trip and be involved in the organisation which means meeting regularly for planning. Having a really great time and glad you are enjoying the blog. Just arrived in the Cinque Terra, check for updates!!

Tuscany
I wish I was there with you guys- it certainly is the trip of a lifetime and what better way to do it than with such great friends.The memories will last you a lifetime. I did think that it was very cruel of you Robyn to send me a text message about how wonderful everything was while I was about to go to work in downtown Melton. The song"It should have been me" keeps popping into my head!!!! Sandra you are lucky that you get to practice your parking because it is exactly the same in Paris- it's amazing that no one seems to mind a dint here or there in their cars. You really need to see it to believe it don't you. You get an amazing feeling inside you when you see things that you have seen as a child. I hope you all soak up every minute and take lots of photos so that we can have a "slide night" when you all get home. Robyn I am glad to hear that you got the promotion to "house keeper" and have the ultra important job of sorting the clothes into correct colour piles. Some people might think that is an easy job, but after being to Phuket we know how difficult it can be to get your correct coloured clothing back. I love reading the antics of the Gully Travellers so keep them coming. Is it as expensive as you thought it would be- are you all sticking to the budget???? Where do you go after Tuscany? The most important questions however are - is Clarkee OK with all that rich Italian food and secondly how do I become a Gully Traveller? Maybe you should consider a name change - the Tuscan Travellers sounds so much more sophisticated,

No Pub Crawl
Sorry Nick we ran out of time to do the pub crawl, though we have managed to do a few wine bar crawls over the past few days!! Maybe one day we can all come back and you can take us on the pub crawl in Rome!!
30th April 2010

This is absolutely wonderful being able to follow you all over Italy, feel like I'm doing it with you..........

Jealous
I'm so jealous, probably not for the sore feet from all the walking. The delay was obviously for a good reason. Glad you are having fun and finding the time to keep all us non travellers at home informed. Enjoy

Hello there....
Anne has passed on your blog which is a fantastic idea. So happy you are there and enjoying the holiday, how could you not! Looking forward to reading about the journey. x.

FABULOUS!
Can't believe you did Rome in two days (and not get run over by the psycho drivers!). Glad you loved the Colosseum. Amazing. Can't wait to hear about Tuscany - don't forget to try 7 year old balsamic vinegar (or older if you can get your hands on it!).
26th April 2010

Rome
I told you Rome was good but I did notice there was no mention of any pub crawls I hope that is just because you ran out of room to right and not that you didn't go on any :) hope your having fun love you

What a shame if the ash cloud comes back and you have to stay over there for an extra month or so.
