		<description><![CDATA[Part 2 of Marty&#8217;s travels in Sorrento, Italy, on Sep 23-27, 2009. We decided after the second day that we wanted to change hotels to a more affordable one; Settimo Cielo had a breathtaking view, but it was setting us back 140 euros times 2 rooms per night.  So we lugged our bags almost 2 [...]]]></description>

We&#8217;re in Italy!  Jess and I flew from Barcelona, Espana (Spain) to Napoli, Italia (Naples, Italy) on Wednesday, September 23, 2009.  We almost didn&#8217;t go because we had been ill and the weather forecast for Sorrento seemed iffy.  But we decided to go [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[More about Marty and Jessica&#8217;s adventures in Barcelona, Sep 19 &#8211; 23, 2009! One random drawback to Barcelona I haven&#8217;t mentioned yet was the Catalan language.  Apparently back in the olden days, lots of the regions and territories of Spain had their own languages.  Barcelona&#8217;s local language was called Catalan.  As these regions were taken [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On Saturday 9/19, my birthday, Jessica and I both arrived in Barcelona.  We checked into our hotel, which looks like something sent back in time from the year 3000.  Everything is futuristic and seems to put form above function.  The shower door is too small to be effective; the seating is round and hard, like [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[More of my adventures in Madrid, days 2 and 3. I&#8217;m out walking the streets of Madrid once more. One thing that is nice here (as in most of Europe that I&#8217;ve seen) is that they don&#8217;t BS you around about prices.  When they say something costs 10 Euro, it costs 10 damn Euro.  That&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

Tomorrow I&#8217;ll write about some of the museums and palaces and that sort of thing. Madrid is a very walkable city, which [...]]]></description>
