I would have been leaving this weekend from my home on the central coast of CA for another summer in Capri - fingers crossed it may still a possibility in September. Side note: I got arrested for trespassing on the Berkeley campus when I was a teenager.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10096971828224755759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6211405954943098401.post-59177953154933386782020-05-30T09:05:14.878+02:002020-05-30T09:05:14.878+02:00Safe travels, Susan, and thank you for these infor...Safe travels, Susan, and thank you for these informative, well-written, and (darkly) gripping posts.
