Rome / Italy
2,500 years of history are woven into the fabric of modern Rome. You can feel it in the glory of the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican. Or as you wander sidestreets that open onto piazzas, fountains, Bernini sculpture, and elegant courtyards. Famous treasures are legion in Rome: the Colosseum…the Forum…St. Peter’s Cathedral…the Trevi Fountain…the Spanish Steps.
Capri / Italy
Geologically Capri is limestone; its dolomite cliffs, which at many points tower perpendicularly out of the sea, have been chiseled and tunneled by time into fantastic shapes and marvelous caves (grottoes). There are two main massifs: on the east Monte Tiberio (1095ft) and on the west Monte Solaro (452ft). The town of Capri (from which the island takes its name) at 452ft is located between them, in a position, which has Marina Grande to its north and Marina Piccola on its southern side. The island's second residential center, Anacapri, lies in a sweep of lush countryside to the west of Monte Solaro.
For the etymology of the name Capri, one must look back to the Hellenic colonists who first inhabited it in historic times.
Messina / Italy.
Messina, third biggest city in Sicily (after Palermo and Catania), seat of an archbishop and a university, is the place where rail and car travelers first set foot on Sicilian soil, greeted by the great statue of the Virgin Mary by the harbor. Today, situated between the sea and the Monti Peloritani, is a modern city and a center for trade and communications, triumphantly overcoming such vicissitudes as the earthquake of 1908 and the Allies' bombing in 1943.
Kotor / Montenegro
Kotor is an ancient town in the middle of an enourmous bay which will take a long time to drive around.
The old town is very pretty with its city walls, lots of churches and old buildings from Byzantine and other cultures, and a large number of places to eat and have coffee.
Under the city walls you can find a ,arket with all sorts of great local produce fromfish over wonderful dried figs or mushrooms, to olives in all tastes.
Dubrovnik/Croatia - Tue. 12 oct.
The world famous Dubrovnik is the city in which nature and architecture perfectly blend.
It is a city of culture and art; a city that will please
the most refined taste. Dubrovnik is a unique Mediterranean gem!
Here you'll discover a treasure trove of medieval art and architecture including the Sponza and Rector's Palace, the Franciscan and Dominican Monasteries, the Cathedral, the Church of St. Blaise, Onofrio's Large and small Fountains, Orlando's Column, and much more. This city defies all description...
you must explore her and see for yourself!!!
Hvar / Croatia
The best way to see Hvar is by foot - stroll through the ancient streets the Old City. The ancients considered Hvar one of the "Isles of the Blessed". Flower-filled gardens, palms, lemon and orange groves add a fragrance lovely enough to match the visual appeal of this sun-drenched island beauty.
Visit the theater of 1506, Benedictine Monastery, the town square and ancient stone houses.
Venice / Italy
Venice the magnificent Serenissima, the City on the Lagoon is a watery maze of grand canals, 177 smaller canals and over 400 bridges.
Venice's enticing, exotic beauty is typified by the Byzantine architecture, enormous stained glass windows rising along the Canale Grande and Venetian Carnival Masks with their wry smiles, attesting to the cities historic role as the great maritime power.
The entire Mediterranean once flowed through the Venetian Republic, adorning the city with the splendors that illuminate it today.
