Hi Sharon, thanks:)….the colors on the pants are very vibrant. I think I will take them with me and try to find something other than black for the top...…..or, if it is black, something different than "plain black".

Lois, those pants would look lovely with a cobalt blue or turquoise top.

Hi Cynthia:)….well, I was out most of the day and a top I had ordered from QVC was in the mail when I got home and guess what, it is PERFECT LOL...….after all that, it is black..... it is lace (not an itchy lace)…...very

soft, peplum style and longer in the back. It is tank style but plenty of shoulder coverage and it is lined. AND

it fits beautifully. I did find a short sleeved top in a pinky fuchsia that I bought anyway......it is more casual and

I like it but the lace top dresses up the pants much more. Let me see if I can post a photo......I know I said

I was going for something other than black but I REALLY love this:D

Black is always my go-to color. Sounds really lovely with the pants. :)

 

Have a great time on your cruise. :ship: I'm in your neck of the woods this weekend visiting family.

ah, well, hopefully you had a great trip :)

 

Good morning, oh yes, I had a fantastic trip:D……amazing.:) I have now been to Italy 3 different times and could go back for 4th. We went to Dubrovnik, 2 stops in Sicily, Rome, Sorrento, Malta...…..and started out in Venice. It was sunny and VERY hot.

Food and service on the ship were wonderful as well. So yes, I had a great trip, thanks:)

Glad you enjoyed it! I absolutely love Italy. Went for the first time about 35 years ago with a school group. More recently we have been to Tuscany 3 times and are going back for a 4th time in October. We stay in the same villa with friends every time and enjoy a week of fabulous food, visiting wineries etc. We have added days in Rome and Venice to the front or back ends of most trips. A fifth trip was to the Amalfi Coast. We stayed in Positano and visiting Naples, Capri, Pompeii, and Sorrento. We have also visited Sicily, the Cinque Terre Portofino on cruise stops. Milan and the Lake Como area is still on our yet-to-visit list.

Sounds like a fantastic itinerary :) I would love to go back to Dubrovnik, when we were there, we were delayed in docking due to gale force winds & rain, we were lucky to get onshore, & when we walked he walls we pretty much had them to ourselves as the combo of wind & rain resulted in sideways rain lol. So, I'd love to see it in the sunshine with the buza bars open. :)
