MADRID - SPAIN
March 2 - 10, 2001
We stayed at the Hotel Tryp Ambassador located in the middle of the historic center, close to the Gran Via, the Royal Palace, the Senate and both the Royal and Opera Theatres. The hotel occupies the old Palace of the Duques de Granada de Ega, which still has its original structure. Also visited the Prado Museum and caught the train at the Attoche train station for a day trip to Segovia.Take a virtual tour.
THE ITALIAN ALPS - Cortina D'Ampezzo
January 19 - 29th 1996
Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy Stayed at the Concordia Parc Hotel.. My first trip to Italy. For beginners and leisurely intermediates, the splendid nursery slopes and long, easy, well-groomed runs are ideal. For keen slope-bashers, Cortina's fragmented areas can be frustrating, especially if snow is scarce and the area is fragmented even more; but the access to the Sella Ronda and other Dolomite Super ski resorts, though time consuming, is some compensation - having a car is best for exploring. For experts, there are few tough runs, and the best of those are liable to poor snow conditions and closure because they face south.

Courmayeur
Enjoyed our stay at the Hotel Cresta et Duc. Skiing was wonderful!  Stayed at the lovely Hotel Cresta et Duc within walking distance from the gondola that takes you to the mountain for a full day of skiing. Breathe-taking views from the top of Mont Bianco.
Rome
ITALY, GUARDIAGRELLE
October 1st - 9th, 1999
I and another friend went to visit. My friend lives on the eastern coast of Italy in the district of Abruzzi. A small mountain town called Guardiagrele. Beautiful view of the mountains greeted me every morning when I awoke. Wish I could bottle the mountain air.
My friend took us around visiting her friends, and her city. Her mother fixed home-made Italian food for us by every day! I tried many different dishes. Even ate a fig from a tree just down the block.

Stayed at the Concordia Parc Hotel in Cortina. This was my first trip to Italy. I was very excited!
