Italy-Day 1!
We arrived in Rome early Sunday for the start of a family trip. We’re headed out to the Vatican now, but here’s a couple of quick pics from our first day here. Click on the pictures to see bigger versions. First, the Spanish Steps:…

My goal in life is to fill my family’s passports with stamps, creating buckets of memories along the way. You’ll find me writing about realistic ways for normal people to travel the world, whether you’re on a budget or enjoy luxury. I also enjoy taking us on the occasional detour to explore the inner workings of the travel industry.
Virgin America Review
I had the opportunity to fly first class on Virgin America for the first time on Monday. I had to get SFO early in the day, so that was the best choice vs. United (who blow chunks). It cost a bit more to sit…
Seth Curry Coming To Duke
It’s been a busy couple of weeks, so I haven’t had much time to post. But tonight, there’s potentially great news for Duke. Seth Curry, brother of star Stephen and son of superstar Dell, will be attending Duke university next year. With our untimely…
ACC Semifinals
Forgot to post last night! UNC *LOST* in the first semifinal. I was surprised at how many UNC fans actually stuck around for our game. I guess they really do hate Duke enough to want to see us lose. Anyway, the first half was…
ACC Quarterfinals-Night Session
After watching Maryland beat Wake, Duke took the floor to play Boston College. Gerald Henderson, one of our stars, picked up two fouls in less than a minute. We played pretty bad offensively in the first half, kept only alive by good defense. Down…
ACC Quarterfinals
Ended up staying up late to watch all 6 OTs of the Syracuse v UConn game. Awesome. Earlier today, UNC got a big scare from VA Tech before eeking out a victory. Florida State did the same thing against Georgia Tech. In the night…
ACC Tournament-End of Day One
We watched Maryland pull away from NC State, and then the first half of a thoroughly uninspiring game that pitted Boston College against Virginia. Boston College won, so the Dukies know who we play tomorrow night. A pic of David and I, followed by…
ACC Tournament-Night Session
So, Georgia Tech pulled it out against Clemson. Lot of fun to watch. After a break, we’re back for the night time games. Game 3 pits Maryland against NC State. Maryland is supposed to be the better team. Both teams are playing sloppy, tied…
ACC Tournament-Georgia Tech
1 minute left, and Clemson comes alive to close it to 4. Because we’re in Georgia, there are obviously a lot of GA Tech fans here. Every time they score, the crowd roars. —– Original Message —– From: Edward Pizzarello To: ed264.pizza@blogger.com <ed264.pizza@blogger.com> Sent:…
