Mark Luttenberg, Trip to Italy

Mark and Gail Luttenberger talked about their 2nd trip to Italy. They booked the trip thru Globus. They arrived in Rome five days early. The trip traveled to Lugano in the North and Capri in the South. In addition to Rome, they saw Pompeii, Sorrento, Assisi, Venice Island, Florence and Pisa to name a few. We will not be able to describe the great photos that Gail and Mark took in this newsletter. Rome has over four million people. It is hot and dry in the summer.  The Vatican is on the highest hill in Rome. It is a separate state. Side note – they did celebrated both their birthdays and anniversary in Italy. For more information or a great program, contact Mark and Gail. Thank you for sharing your 2nd trip to Italy.
