Mom's Italy trip

Mom went to Italy last summer and took my Xacti HD camecorder. Here are the photos and videos. The trip hit most of the big cities; Venice, Pisa, some coastal town off the Med, Pompeii, Rome, and other places.

I tweaked out several of the pics with Picasa photo editing & they came out really sweet. Check em...

Thanks to Captain Brann for his steady flying, Dad and I had a wonderful time flying high above Southwest Florida on a beautiful, sunny and clear December day last Christmas season.

The flight started at the Naples Airport. We took off heading north for Venice Airport. After a nice lunch, the plane flew for a touch, taxi and go at Fort Myers Airport, then South toward Marco Island. Just East of the island, we did a non-stop touch and go at the Marco Island Executive Airport. The photos clearly show how this small airstrip is surrounded completely by water and mangroves. Pretty cool.

Heading North again, we finally landed at Naples Airport. Unlike boating, we didn't have to spray clean the plane and flush the engine of salt. Nice.
