    Yeah it is.

    If it is Argentina vs Brazil in the final, it is worth it. Any other team, I got zero interest.

    The Zika Cup, can't wait.


    If the United States is in the finals don't worry, I'll buy your tickets.

    Don't think USA will make it to the final but you never know. I guess I will play it safe and get the endzone nosebleeds for $135. If it isn't Argentina vs Brazil, I will at least recoup some of the money thru Stubhub.

    Regardless of who plays, it'll be top, say, 15 in the world. How often do you get to see matches of such quality live?

    I though Venice was pretty dirty. Was not that impressed. Naples was ok. Had a good time. Bought a full length leather trench coat for $ 50 off some street vendor at 3 a.m. started negotiating around 2 a.m. think he just got tired of hearing me talk.

    I bet the Olive Garden and Pizza Hut are the best there.

    I feel pretty good about the temps. Winds could be around 5-10.
    Where are you ?

    Bellows, Italy and the people are awesome. As it kinda runs north-to-south (not to stereotype) but it seemed the further south you went, the locals were warmer. Last time in Italy (for our 25th anniversary), grabbed a villa in Tuscany in the mountains over the town of Bagni di Lucca for 2 weeks. Originally was rented under the aegis of Parker Villas as Villa Sogno (dreams), but the small stone pillar at the foot of the winding 1km bluestone driveway had 'Fronzolo' engraved on it. Had the misses' family over the 1st week and mine over for the 2nd. Converted monestery from the 1740's. https://www.tripping.com/listing/stunning-country-villa-in-panoramic-private-setting/2974740

    Could do day trips to Siena, Lucca, the beach, Florence, etc. all within an hour and a half or so. JStokes is undoubtably having a great time there. I only hope that if he's day tripping it out of Florence by car that the Florentine cops aren't ticketing him left and right for not having a 'resident' sticker - Florence puts our "speed trap" towns to shame.
