Photos from Italy

There are 3 sets of photos here:

  • 2005: Ten years after my first strange visit, Kim helped me finally fulfill a promise I made to myself to return to Venice.

  • 2004: Kim and I visited Rome for a weekend in May 2004.

  • 1996: I went to Italy as part of a 1996 European vacation (I also visited in 1995, sans camera, under less appealing circumstances).  On the same trip I also visited Britain, Egypt, Greece, and France.
