This should keep you busy for a while, but one more thing; it’s my tradition to watch Bread and Tulips on the plane over to Italy, and I usually pack my portable DVD player. I wanted only to pack my iPad this time, and so I checked – Pane e Tulipani (Bread and Tulips) is available for download from iTunes! I’ve been searching, without luck, for other Italian movies, but if I find them I’ll let you know.
