Hello,
I need to get some advice about my upcoming trip to Italy from Los Angeles.
I am attending a conference (May 20-24th) at Centro Affari in
Florence, Italy. Due to the late decision to go, I have not been
able to reserve accommodation for myself (and my wife, who just wouldnt
let me go alone!). Is there any place (less than $75-100 a day) that I
can find to stay ? Where is Centro Affari in Florence ?
I arrive in Milan on 18th (Saturday) at 3.30 pm, and needs to get to
Florence by 21st (Tuesday) morning at least. I can leave from Florence
after being at the Conf for 3 days or so (Mon-Wed, or Tue-Thurs).
I leave from Milan/Malpensa on 27th(Sunday) at 2pm back to LA. Any
way I can hop on to atrain or something and visit Rome and Venice in
a jiffy ? I know, I cant see anything in detail, but what the heck !!
Any advice on things I need to know, and approximate travel times
between Rome-Venice-Florence, would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jay. R. Jayakrishnan jaykay@orion.oac.uci.edu
PS: I am a take-it-easy kind of guy. So, I am willing to cut it fine !
Travel at night would be excellent...
