Hi Laurel!
I tried to download the kindle book but it didn’t work. Maybe it’s my device but I thought I’d better let you know just in case.
Thanks!
Lori

Hi Lori. I am sorry you had a problem. I suggest you report it to Amazon support. I have had a problem on occasion and they can help or give you a refund. Let me know, OK? Thanks!

Woo hoo! Congratulations on the labor of love, and the insights you offer will be valuable to fellow hikers in the Val Gardena. I know you were a fabulous guide with our little family a couple of years ago. : )!

I’ve loved following your Italian and European blogging adventures. Have you any plans to write a book on Rome or any of the other places that you both got to know well?

Hi Marilyn and thank you for your kind words. The book we just published, “Walkling in Italy’s Val Gardena,” will be it for awhile. I am toying around with a similar book for an area of Switzerland that we love, it for now, just blogging. I hope you will follow us at http://www.ProjectEasyHiker.com. I am sure we’ll update Good Day Rome when we travel in Europe, too!

It was rather like having a job at some points! We took a lot of notes and did a lot of drafting of the hikes while there last summer. Then I picked away at expanding the info and formatting. I actually left Rome with all the hikes formatted and most of the material written in October. Then with holidays, house hunting, etc., continued to refine. After Christmas I had to format it for publishing and that was the REAL work. Took many drafts! I am very happy to have it done. Now to promote it!

You are SO RIGHT about the current books available for hiking the Val Gardena. I would have bought your book in a heartbeat when planning our trip last summer. Your blogs about hiking were the most useful to us. Congratulations! There is a real need for this book.

Thank you Chloe! We are lucky: no snow for a couple weeks now. We are in Lincoln City getting moved in. Hope to sleep there Monday night if everything is delivered and the bed assembled! Then we need to get back to hiking!

I’m not a hiker but will let my friends who are know about your book.
I finished (I hope) my cancer treatment yesterday and leave for my month in Venice on February 28. I can finally concentrate on that. I’ll still be walking with a cane but it’s better than not being in Venice.
All the best to you.
Michelle
PS I’ll probably do a blog post on the last few weeks over the weekend.

Congrats on finishing your treatment! What a treat it will be to be in Venice for an entire month! I hope you have an incredible time and look forward to following along. We are already talking about missing Venice not to mention other favorite spots in Italia.

i do hope that you keep on blogging. Certainly, the best blog out of Italy stopped once you moved. i will send this on to a friend who is taking a group from France to the Dolomites this summer, as i am sure that it will be valuable to her. I will probably get one also, just because i love that area of Italy. Are you in your new home yet and are you adjusting to all of the snow?
