I'm off to be Catullus, the wunnerful Catullus of Old
Catullus country.
My wife and I are visiting north Italy from October 11 (fatigued late morning landing at Venice) until October 17 (departure on trireme from Venice for points east at early dinner time). During our time between, we want to look at (and perhaps sniff...??) Venice a bit, but mainly our goal is the Catullus sites around Sirmio and Verona (and anything truly wonderful nearby). We are interested in suggestions for transportation, lodging, saving money if not too onerous, and things of that sort. We have all our limbs and lungs, but "roughing it" for an extended time isn't looked for. We welcome any and all thoughts, suggestions, and leads to produce a truly splendid experience. If Andrew Frisardi or Gregory Dowling or anyone else could drop his/her two Euro-cents at some time into this thread, we will read it with attention. I will naturally ask also on "TripAdvisor" and read "Fodors", but there's nothing like toes-on experience.
All Best, and thanks in advance,
Allen Tice
