American Airlines was kind enough to put us up in the roach motel and gave us $48 bucks for an elegant dinner and wholesome breakfast. That was so gracious of them.
We made the best of it and caught an Uber to get a cheesesteak for dinner. We were also delighted with the scrupmtious breakfast we had at Legal Seafood the next morning. That $48 really set us up.
I guess we learned many valuable lessons on this trip:
- Appreciate life and make a difference. You are here but for a short while and your legacy will be in those you meet along the way.
- Life is an adventure that rarely follows a carefully laid out script. It's probably best to just make it up as you go.
- In the words of my late mother, don't sweat the small stuff...and it's all small stuff.
Whenever I get down and out, I'll reminisce on Italy. Arrivederci.

Bounigorno if you read this in the a.m. So enjoyed your Italy experience. Italy is an amazing country. Our flight back was delayed 1 hour and we missed our Chicago connection. American Airlined put us up in the Hilton, but I could tell it was a budget room probably for passenger who miss their flight. They gave us 40.00 for dinner and breakfast. We spent 28.00 in the snack shop for 1 sandwich, 2 chips and a pop. Will insist on more time in between flights next international trip. So happy you two are home safely. Will call you after tbe jet lag.
