new york and italy

Michael and I are looking forward to our New York and Italy trip in April. We're flying over in mid April and staying in Clinton (a section in Manhattan) for four nights and then we fly over to Florence for five nights and Rome for 3. We're really looking forward to it and talking to everyone to get any hints about either of those two destinations. So far, we're ditching the statue of liberty for a river tour and we're taking the bus tour of downtown. We're going to take everything slow in Florence and just enjoy everything and then in Rome we'll be back up to second by second running around tourism starting with a full day of the Vatican. Needless to say, we can't wait!!
