I don’t know what to say, other than my heart aches for the victims of the hurricane. All the deceased and grieving… the homeless people… the lost businesses and jobs… the destroyed family heirlooms… the elderly, young, and sick who need help and can’t get it… the killed and injured pets, livestock, and wild animals. I send my love and money to those who need it; I just wish I could send more.

Vatican City
Rome was the final city on our Italian honeymoon adventure. In addition to being one of the most culturally and historically rich places I’ve ever visited, this ancient city is also one of the most beautiful. We walked for miles through Rome’s gorgeous scenery of seemingly endless monuments and buildings. Around every corner was something interesting to discover. We spent only two nights there, but I took so many photos that I’m going to split them into four posts. I begin with Vatican City.

The vehicles we loved in ItalyAugust 26, 2005
Look, it fits into a motorcycle parking spot! I think I should get one of these little guys and cruise around Colorado in it. I can toss my dog Ally in the back. As we cruise along at 40mph on the interstate, a Ford F350 will pass us and the four German shepherds in the back will make fun of her.

SienaAugust 24, 2005
During our stay in Florence, we took a day trip to the nearby town of Siena. I loved this gorgeous, walled city! It was everything that I imagine a medieval city should be. I felt like I was in the midst of a huge renaissance festival, only the setting was authentic. Somehow I couldn’t accept the reality of this beautiful place–it was too perfect and charming not to be a movie set. I almost expected a king and his juggling jester to appear on one of the balconies overhead.

Florence by day
Next on our honeymooon adventure was Florence. This city is an aesthetic and cultural delight, full of gorgeous artwork, architecture, and fashion. We spent two days there, in a fabulous hotel near the heart of the city.

Cinque TerraAugust 22, 2005
We spent a hot and sunny day hiking along the seaside cliffs of the Cinque Terra. We climbed high trails along terraced vineyards and olive groves, high above the ocean. At the end of our hike was a beautiful seaside village that felt like the promised land.

PisaAugust 21, 2005
We left Milan and headed for Pisa. We spent only one evening in Pisa, which turned out to be enough time to see the sights (namely, the tower and cathedral). The city itself wasn’t particularly interesting, especially during August, when it seemed that everything was closed for summer holidays. The tower was very cool, though. No matter how many times we’d seen it in photos, we just weren’t prepared for the alarming sight of this tipping structure.

Milan
The next stop on our honeymoon was Milan, where we spent two days window-shopping, exploring a castle, and eating excellent food (finally!).

Honeymoon photos! Venice
I’ve started sorting through our honeymoon photos! The first stop on our two-week Italian adventure was Venice. We spent three days there, in a lovely hotel in the less-touristy Canneregio district. We spent our days exploring the city on foot, with no particular agenda for each day. We drank cappuccino and vino, and sampled the risotto, pasta, and tiramisu. Throughout our trip, I chose to focus on our time together instead of my photography. So I left the tripod at home, and took mostly snapshots along the way. Still I’m pleased with them!
