Caio, dear readers. Susan and I just returned from a spectacular week of hiking in the rugged Dolomite Mountains of northern Italy. Coincidentally, Running Times (October/November) ran a story, “Have Shoes, Will Travel” that discussed the Holomites tour company that guided us on our adventure. We started the trip with a couple days in Venice, which really is as cool as all the photos and articles we’ve ever read but also way more crowded than we expected. Our 10 days in Italy exceeded our every expectation: the hikes were longer, harder, steeper, and more spectacular; the food and lodging were outstanding; and our guides, Suzy and Michael were wonderful – and we got engaged. Life is good!
