Buongiorno


Buongiorno!  Welcome to JumpinLucca.  This blog will follow the adventures of the Jump family—Jim and Shelley, husband and wife—as we spend what we hope will be a once-in-a-lifetime vacation, including four weeks living in Tuscany in the old walled city of Lucca, followed by a touristy week seeing the Swiss Alps by train leading to several days in Paris and London.

The name of the blog has double, and perhaps even triple, meaning.  First, there is the primary meaning, the adventures of Jump in Lucca.  Second, as will be all too apparent, we are definitely “jumping in” to this experience, deciding to stay in a town that is unseen by and largely unknown to us.  I’ll share more about “Why Lucca?” and how all this came about over the next couple of days.  What remains to be seen is the third possible meaning, whether Lucca itself is jumpin’.
I'll try to post regularly, unless the Italian culture and lifestyle destroys my ambition.  Ciao!
