Day 174 - Strike in Athens


Strike against war, for without you no battles can be fought!

Day 173 - City of Athens


When the freedom they wished for most
was freedom from responsibility,
then Athens ceased to be free and was never free again

Day 172 - Beach Getaway


Warm sunshine, cool breeze, sounds of the ocean,
that's the thing you love the most about going to the beach
but the very important thing is
make sure you don't fall into deep sleep

Day 171 - City of Vatican


Vatican City the smallest independent state
 in the world by both area and population
yet so gorgeous and too good to be missed

Day 170 - When in Rome

A great city, whose image dwells in the memory of man,
 is the type of some great idea.
Rome represents conquest; 
Faith hovers over the towers of Jerusalem;

Day 169 - Pompeii


..with towels they fixed pillows to their heads,
as protection against the falling stones...

Day 168 - Napoletan Love


My favorite love story of all
it starts with a simple conversation
distance means nothing to them
and it ends with happily ever after

Day 167 - Via dell' Amore


Love is a path to the heart that knows its own way

Day 166 - The Crossing


Bridges were built to connect point A to point B,
to link something that was otherwise separated apart.

Day 165 - City of Florence


In Paris, you learn wit,
in London you learn to crush your social rivals,
and in Florence you learn poise

Day 164 - City of Venice



Venice once was dear, 
The pleasant place of all festivity,
The revel of the earth, 
The masque of Italy

Day 163 - Letters to Juliet


I don't know what a love like Juliet's feels like
 love to leave loved ones for,
love to cross oceans for
but I'd like to believe if I ever were to feel it,
that I will have the courage to seize it
