Re: [Leica] Equipment getting really cheap

["Roland Smith" <roland@dnai.com>]

We arrived in Italy May 24 and departed June 17. Our travels included:
Venice
Rome
Sicily, staying at Toarmina
Fabro, near Orvieto for a week in a timeshare with journeys to:
    Bologna
    Florence
    Todi
     Perugia
    Siena
    Spoletto
    San Giangimani (sp) a town of towers
Rome again

Everything was great except the weather.  The heat was really taxing on our
energy.

We are already talking about our return trip.  However, next year, it will
be the Russian Federation.

Best regards,
Roland
