The heel of the boot, Puglia. The English members of my family speak highly of it. A friend with long experience in the travel industry here turned up his nose and said, “Puglia??,” when I told him where I was going. Another friend, a well-traveled former Coca-Cola exec, says I’ll love it. A bit out of the way, I gather, but I suspect that for that reason, and perhaps others, I will find the second friend is right. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA eew...@bellsouth.net "What does it mean...that the world is so beautiful?" - Mary Oliver -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
