O'NEIL DESCRIBES HER TRIP TO EUROPE (Continued from Page One) that city by the Americans ex- actly four years ago. `You'll see a group of men congregated - very close, very intense. You wonder if that's communism and whether you'll be considered a capitalist. You approach, 'and find they are playing bowls. I didn't feel the Italians friendly like the French. They were helpful but they went our money and that's all. And the tourist is surely spotted; and take en for a ride. 'But there is a thrill to it all - their lovely ant, opera, cathed- rals, shops! The whole of Italy is a picture. Such scenery, such drives through valleys, up the hills, along the lakes, hair -pin turns, the Appennines with you all the time. I'm sure we carne to Lake Trasumenus• on the same route that Hannibal used, "You should keep in mind if travelling here a few essential points. First, St. Marghuerita, Rapello and Portofina. Then the circular tour from Florence via Sienna. You couldn't travel those trips too often - very magnificent. Then Sorrento, Amalfi and Capri 'from Naples. How these people love to climb! You mount° stairway after stair- way, but you never get to the top. At St. Peter's in Rome, the people who did get up lookd to us like flies, It's all so stupend- our, very difficult to assimilate but it definite'y leaves its mark. "We got' into Venice just at dusk. No noise there, little bustle, no motors, no bicycles, The C.I.T. man, put me and my luggage in a gondola, end off I set with an Italian. At the end of a long day, to arrive at an unknown place, set off alone along the canals, winding in and out with an Italian is a unique experience. It took a long time and so I looked at the buildings and as I passed right by door -steps, winding in and mit, a silly nurs- ery rhyme commenced going THURSDAY, JULY 14, 1949 • through my head: "Brian a'Flynn, ,and.. his wife and wife's mother, All went over the bridge to- gether, The bridge toppled down, the three tumbled in,. 'We'll go home by water,' says Brian O'Flynn". "Suddenly, very quickly," we stopped at some stone steps. I got out and went in to the Pen- sion 'La ,Calcina' and was taken up (two flights) to a glorious room overlooking the canal, on which the lights off the city were, reflecting and dancing. ' "In Venice more than any- where except here, how 1long- ed for money to shop. Such glass, such lace -but very ex- pensive. The square of Se Mark with all its pigeons - and the little tables there, where we sat in the sun, and watched the birds, the Cathedral of St. Mark, the Palade of the Doges where we stood on the `Bridge of Sighs' and later went down, down to the dungeons, the leisurely afternoon where we meandered up and down the canals in gondolas, stepping out at intervals to visit Cathed- rals, Desdemona's house, the one I where Browning lived and died, the Bridge of the Rialto with. all its stores (14),' Shylock's 'house, the final departure at 3.30 am, in a gondola, this time with a C,I•T. man to put me, on my oItrain. All this is commencing ncing t fade already, gradually taking its place among other lovely memories. "At Milan I had to change. 3 was just settled in a compart- ment when I heard voices. Some delightful people -Mr. and Mrs. Brown and' Billy. They are en rout from Arabia` to Portland, Oregon, on furlough. Mr. B. is connected with the American Arabia Oil Co. I met them first travelling from Rome to Naples, had lunch with them et Cassino, and again at Amalfe, and had listened to their stories of life in Dharran, Arabia. We had not expected to meet again, and how delighted I was. In, an instant, Mr. Brown had me and all my luggage transferred to their compartment, and I was with them until I got off at Sierra. "There I took the funicular to get up here. This is quite off the beaten path - a place very worth while -winter or summer.
