That is quite possibly the coolest vacation plan I've ever heard of. I'm not up to it yet, but that would be such a great goal to work toward. My husband's family is from Sicily & Calabria (last name is Palermo -- how much more Italian can you get?) and we've always wanted to go visit the area.

Wow, there are some really smart (or smart-sounding) people here.

I vote for smart sounding! How smart can someone be who will be in a pool before work, push themselves to exhaustion, smell like chlorine all day, have dry skin, etc. and call all of that fun!:D
"Temporarily" Retired Registered Nurse-worked in the Neonatal Intensive Care for 10 years. I'm taking time off to be a full-time mom to my 2 girls. Unfortunately, my nursing hours were not conducive to my children's ACTIVE schedules!
I'm currently a high school swim team coach, a part-time USS coach and a summer league coach. My girls are both swimmers so these jobs work well for my family!
I plan on going back to nursing in a few years!
