So we just got back from nice trip yesterday. Mostly good (except laptop theft on RER in Paris, car rental mixup, and ugliest motel room on planet in Beaune). Great art, scenery, wine visits. But one of the best parts was meeting Mike (and Cathy)Tommasi, Nils Gustaf (and Christina) Lindgren, and Luca(aka Luk). We all had a great meal at Agrodolce in Imperia (best wine for my tastes was a Pigato), and we loved the B&B that Mike suggested. And Nils Gustaf helped obtain our nice Nice hotel, and he and Christina had us over for a wonderful Provencal meal our last night. Brief notes on food and wine when I get caught up, but I wanted to just say thanks to Mike, Nils, and Luca (as well as Fillipo from the Italian wine newsgroup), for making the last weekend of our trip so fun!
Go AFW!

Welcome back, Dale. I'm jealous that you got to hang out with the fun folk of AFW's Provence contingent (as well as meeting Luk). Please do post notes when you get the chance. *drool*

Hi Dale,
It was a true pleasure to meet you and your family, and *fun*tastic the opportunity to bring in my region the second NY-er in one month due to a web (wine) friendship.

Hi Dale and hi to everyone !
This is my first post on AFW. I always have to fight against my laziness to write in another language. It was great to meet you and Nils in a single night ! Mike and Luk are friends of mine but I hope we could become quickly too. I hope to have you to the next TigullioVino.it Meeting

Sigh, I should have been there, too, but I had already scheduled to get in Brixen, those days. Nice to hear it's been a nice gathering ;)
Its too bad we were at opposite ends of the table. So next time (and I'm determined there will be a next time) you sit next to me! cheers
Great to meet you! I've looked at Terrence's site (I think it's actually
