Yes we're Canadian but we live in Italy so we've acquired a touch of spontaneity. And that will be the watch word for this outing. Nothing structured, nothing set in stone except the dates: March 11-13 (or if you have the time and inclination stay a few days extra.)
Leslie Scott and Diana Szyszka Pompei have done the ground work and now its up to you.
