I can't wait to share the pictures.
The only other downside (this word is far to strong for my uses of it) to this trip is that Italy is MUCH MORE HUMID than I thought it would be.
I'm starting to miss my semi-desert just a little bit.
But I could totally live here. With AC.

It's only a downside if you don't take it as an opportunity to eat extra gelato. Just sayin'.
DJ, I think if you present it as you have here, you'll be fine. Also, it's plenty of notice.

HFC GELATO EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!!!!!! (at LEAST once a day)
The ONLY place we've had a problem getting gelato was in Montepulciano. Unlike everywhere else in Italy, there's only one tiny, hard to find gelato place in the whole town (as far as we could tell).
But we DID eventually find it. And ate it.
You might want to take your post, edit it into a very nice note (it is certainly the basis for one) then hand it to the appropriate person when they can read it while you wait and discuss it immediately. That wait you don't have to worry about leaving anything out when you first broach the subject.
I just don't even know how to bring it up. I have a whole issue with thinking I don't deserve stuff and why should anyone make an exception for me, so I just shouldn't even bother asking because who do I think I am. I am the opposite of Vortex's students.
Sigh
DJ, do it!!! Once in a lifetime indeed!! And I think a lot of people will understand that. If you do it in conjunction with thanksgiving, well, practically everyone is gone that week anyway...
Seriously, though. Do you not get vacation time as a contractor? Do they know how lucky they are that you don't take vacay, if so??
I'm loving Sean's Assassin's Creed 2 tour of Italy.
I take a day or two here or there. Like Friday-Monday for my anniversary, and a day to take care of stuff with the new car. Other than that I'm only out if I'm sick, and even then I'm likely to WFH. I wonder if there's a way to WFI?
