Title: Good material for long term european vacations
Review: This is a good read for those considering long-term European vacation with kids in tow. Compared with Rick Steve's Backdoor books, the perspective is inappropriately focused on 4-month monster vacations. Most of us dash through our European vacations in 2 or 3 weeks. References to Italy (and Italians) are strangely negative: "Venice is full of thieves and con-artists". The tour of Italian cities includes big-city destinations such as Rome, Naples and Milan, yet leaves out gems like Florence, Lucca, Siena, Assisi, etc. Good insight into travel-related doldrums, depression and family togetherness issues. Covered teenager rebellion with refreshing anecdotes.
