...Can I suggest you read The Kapillan of Malta by Nicholas Monserrat before your visit, if you haven't already, of course?
I will definitely add the book to my required reading. I checked out the book online and It sounds fascinating.
Probably going to wait until we return to read. I have a mindless murder mystery that takes place in Amsterdam that I have saved for my airplane rides. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Wink.gif" alt="" />
My wife suffers from a little claustrophobia and last week, after looking at a travel book, she told me that we could remove them from the list of things to see. Thanks to your recommendation and experience it is back on the list. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Thumbsup.gif" alt="" />
