Good afternoon.
I went through some photograph of our trip to Italy in they year of 1986.
I wanted to visit my parent's birthplace.Had a cousin there and they are invited us to their house.
Mellizzano:Located in the Province of in the Italian region Campania.
This is outside of Naples.I know that it was an hour drive there to there.
They have shown us other part of Italy Capri and many others around in that area.
These are my cousins from my mother side of the family.
She had a niece there which I will show later.
We have lost contact so many years.I am sure they are gone.The older ones.
We still have the young ones.
The photograph is the the Melizzano as we visit the town.
My cousin Luiza is sitting with me.
We went to City hall and got some information of my parents.
Wedding etc.They had a strong earthquake a while back and some of the ruins at that time was still there.
I will be showing photos of and on here.
How is your day going.

The grandmother of one of my housemates also came from near Naples. She was a tiny woman, less than 5 feet tall.
