If you miss Europe...

Pro Walk Tours has a great series of walks on You tube. He simply films as he is walking, he does not talk, will occasionally flash up some text, so you just hear and see what he is seeing. My favorite is the Amalfi walk and my plan is to do the walk from one town to the next someday (maybe when I get my new knee). I also love the Paris one.

Thanks, Letizia. The day before my town locked down, the bookstore emailed me that my copy of Frances Mayes' See you in the Piazza arrived. I figure that will be a bit of a fix. Then, I went to the library with 1 hour to spare and got out 3 Daphne Du Maurier novels - Cornwall, I've never been. I just pulled out my Irish cookbooks, including one I really had to hunt to get: West of Ireland Summers by Tamasin Day-Lewis. It has great photos.

And, most notably, I discovered so many episodes of Escape to the Country and Escape to the Chateau online. I am limiting my TV and online news viewing, too scary. But, I figure this hiatus will give me an opportunity to clean up the garden and re-read my travel books. Well, in addition to actually getting work done.

Best, Debbie

Thank you Letizia for sharing, these are great videos and are something to enjoy while I am waiting for the shelter in place to lift here in Silicon Valley.

Thank you! I just went and revisited Positano! Started at the same street we stayed on, saw a restaurant and bar we went to, and the outside of our hotel!

These bring back great memories for me too! I also see spots I missed on our last visit.
