Dog Eaters shock the Frog Eaters with a late goal !!

I'll be traveling to these cities in the next couple of weeks.  While my
traveling companions are all about the ruins, I need some beach time too.
Any recommendations for the best (cleanest, most picturesque) beaches in the
vicinity of these two cities?

Hi Travellers!
I just wanted to write a trip report on Stockholm as I got some great advice
and before I went and wanted to give something back to the group. Photos are

Holy sh.t !
US just made an equalizer towards Italy !!!

Thinking of going to Ireland (Dublin area), what should I look for in
the shops with a view to making a saving over UK prices?
Wine is presumably taxed at a lower rate - what would any savings be?
(I live nearer to Ireland than France, by the way).

Any nudist or C/O beach info in west Corsica? We want to stay in a
hotel on the west coast very close to a beach where we can sunbath
nude. Any recommendations please...

I'll be visiting Spain (Potes) while the later stages of the World Cup
are on. Can anyone tell me what TV channel(s) the World Cup is shown on
and are they available in the typical hotel?
Judging by the way England are playing they'll probably be out by then,

We will be arriving at Ciampino airport at 5 pm.  I have heard stories about
missing the train if you are not assertive enough.  I am going to be with my
family of 5.  Any tips?  Can I catch the train South to Ceprano from the
airport?

Can I go into a bank in Italy and cash travelers cheques?

should i use my amex card as often as possible or does is bid/ask
spread it uses for euros, pounds, etc., even worse than, say, my local
Bank of America branch issuing me currency before I leave the U.S.? BOA
says its euro spread is 1 EU = 1.24/1.32 US or 1 GP = 1.74/1.91 US.

I'd like to apply for CartaSi credit card, purely for travel purposes
(on-line reservations of hotels and flights, paying for accommodation
and shopping when abroad), and now the bank asks me which circuit do I
want - Visa o Mastercard. Which one is better for travel/online

Can anyone please tell me how far the Bari airport is from the seaport?
I will be arriving at 8am from an overnight ferry from Dubrovnik, and
I need to get to the airport to catch a flight.  Is there fast (cheap?
expensive?) bus or shuttle service?  Thanks.
