Our Trip Begins

This is a blog about our trip-of-a-lifetime to Italy and is dedicated to my beloved husband, Terry, with great gratitude. We began with a stopover in San Francisco to see the play "The Most Happy Fella."

It turned out to be a charming production and the soundtrack that ran in my head in Italy as I sang about "la frutta, la torte, and la Abbondanza!

In a happy coincidence, San Francisco was enjoying their yearly event called Bay to Breakers where silliness rules the day!  We came across huge numbers of people all dressed in various get-ups and when we saw these folks dressed as chickens, Terry yelled out, "Hey chickens, will you pose for a picture?" and they promptly struck a pose!  Such good sports!
