Dear friends,
while talking to Mike Savoca, we would like seriously try to set up a Gente di Mare reuinion somewhere in USA, probably for the next year 2008.
Who would like to attend to it in order to meet each other? I and Mike are the first ones.
We were thinking about NY so we can also go for one day to Ellis Island!!
Any suggestion or idea about that?
I hope you all reply to this thread
ciao Riccardo

As Riccardo said, we would really love to work that out. We should start to plan now so that way we can get this done. I can't wait to see you all, and you can skype me or pm/e-mail me. Lets get the weels turning.

Sounds like an amazing idea! I am about 3 hours drive from NYC (to the north) I would love to meet all of you in person, and also I have never been to Ellis Island. Let's try and make this a reality!

Very Happy

I REALLY HOPE THIS DREAM WILL COME TRUE!
NUCCIA, LEE, BIFF, CATHY, LIZ, CAROLE, GINA,LORI, SIMONA, PLEASE LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT THAT.
ALSO ITALY COULD BE A NICE PLACE FOR THE REUNION, SO EVERYONE HAVE THE CHANCE TO GO AND VISIT THE VILLAGE OF THEIR ANCESTOR, MEETING LOSNG LOST RELATIVES, MAKE GENEALOGY RESEARCH ON SITE
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
LET US KNOW BYE RICCARDO Wink

You can't imagine 'how much' I would love to come over there. But I fear that isn't ever going to be possible any more.....
(It's not the money, but my health!)

But when you DO have the reunion you MUST promise to find an Internet Cafe and all speak to me on Skype!!!

Carole, that's too bad you can not join us in New York, we promise you we get an internet point with Skype and we talk to you. I hope Biff, Gina, Lori, Simona will reply their opinion soon. I'm so thrilled, I'm floating on clouds, It looks like this dream is coming true.
What is the best month for everybody and for New York weather?
Thank you Nuccia for adding the dancing banana next to my signature
bye Riccardo Wink

Lisa, now I know when you are coming next year to Italy.
Remember Talamello is not that far from Trento, 220miles , I would like to meet you so we can make researches, take pictures, I hope we can call suanj (Raffaella) or maybe she can come and meet us there in Talamello.
LET'S CELEBRATE!!!!
Riccardo Very Happy

p.s. Lisa please let me know when you are coming, so if you like we can meet each other

Now a get together in Italy would be far more possible for me.

If this Talamello is the one near San Marino then it is 430 km (270 miles)

That could be okay for me.
I haven't problems to choose the month and the duration of the trip: my boss is very permissive!!! Rolling Eyes
