That was one of my favorite parts about being in Italy. The other part was gelato. Hopefully you're getting loads of that as well. :D

I've eaten gelato a time or to. Extremely smooth and creamy. I'm not sure why it's not more of thing here than ice cream. Unfortunately, I have never been to Italy to eat said gelato, so maybe one of these days I will manage to do that, if the economy doesn't blow up over their "unstable political climate."
They should just give out more gelato. It makes everything better. Except a cold. The sugar would make that worse. Other than that, you're good. I think you should go if you get a chance. The coast is nice as well. I wouldn't be mad about getting to go back. :)
Okay, so I'm getting the feeling I'm supposed to invite you in the event we ever make it over there. :)
I really like Italian food, at least the restaurant kind I get here, which, if it's anything like the Mexican food you get, isn't really Italian. So, I'd be really interested in seeing the difference, and just how much flavor and overall gastronomical goodness I've been missing out on.
I think of all the places in Europe I'd like to go, touring the southern coastal parts of Italy, Spain and Greece all appeal to me.
I probably should start a Gelato franchise or something. My wife brought home some Breyer's Gelato which I really liked, and I've had some from a place that basically only served Gelato, and that was good.
If I got my hands on it more, I'd eat it over regular ice cream any day.
The gelato was great! There is a little spot near Vatican City called Old Bridge Gelato that is fantastic.
Good to know for the next time I'm there.
