to the Duomo San Martino (cathedral). This is a nice place to visit to get away from the heat and bustle and sit and think. The darkness of Italian churches and cathedrals and the smell of insense and candles makes for a very calming experience. Remember to take something to cover shoulders and don't wear shorts...the guide books are actually right on that one.
There are lots of little shops along the narrow alley ways. We found a lovely toy shop selling wooden toys, puppets, etc., loads of amazing delicatessant food shops and the usual tacky tourist souveneir shops.
If you tire of Lucca itself, it is very well placed to reach many other places in Tuscany. We went to Pisa and made it to the top of the tower. We also went a bit further afield to the Island of Elba, taking our hire car over on the Ferry. What a beautiful ...

Advantages: Year round subshine, warm sea, empty beaches, all facilities, good price, no herds of tourists. Disadvantages: Very difficulty to say goodbye.
booking by the week an apartment in one of the four villas run by Villa Aliki. They are ideally situated up the hill from the beach to benefit from the cooling breezes. They have terraces, balconies and gardens, and each apartment has two large bedrooms and a substantial living room/kitchen. Owned, designed and built by a Crete enthusiast from The Netherlands, Villa Aliki has those little luxuries that visitors are used to, yet not always available in Greek-owned hotels. For example: hot water showers, ceiling fans, air conditioning, mosquito nets at windows and over beds, refrigeration, satelite TV, internet connections, books and games, full cooking facilities, outside eating facilities etc. There is daily laundry and cleaning by a very efficient German lady, who can solve any problem, and answer any query it seems.

In 1982 Aston Villa won the European Cup. In fact English clubs won it six years in a row and dominated Europe, Forest and Liverpool winning 5 more, a couple of UEFA Cups thrown in for good measure. England will have the most winners in the competition when Manchester United beat Chelsea in the Moscow final with a totals of 12 victories. Football is coming home and those European glory days are returning for British football with an English club making the last four Champions League finals. Aston Villa could well be involved in winning the big ...
