Laurie went to Rome and all I got was a blog posting

Laurie Perry over at Crazy Aunt Purl is talking about her trip to Rome, and let me just say that, even though there are some long postings, it's well worth the read. Plus she has photos.

Her trip was spontaneous, ridiculously cheap ($600 for a round-trip ticket to Rome? Sign me up next time, Laurie!) and something of a personal triumph for her. It's quite the inspirational read, whether she meant it to be or not.

It's also written in her typical hilarious style. (My favorite header: "Yes, I went to Rome and now they are all out of wine.")

Read it. Get inspired. She makes me eager to get on a plane again.

Yeah I actually read it on Thursday and felt inspired. I've been scouring orbitz.com, etc but to no avail (I'm sure that's spelled wrong).

Instead I'm focuing on the cruise in December now. :-)
