AP- (a.k.a carmen sandiego…where in the world did they ever get that lame name)
i want to take my flame on vacation somewhere on the mediterranean-like the amalfi coast. can you name a place that’s somewhat secluded but has a night life that also comes alive?
oh, and i’d like to knock the girls socks off without breaking the piggy bank so Monaco will have to wait. damn the dollar.
word.
ANSWER PERSON RESPONDS: Which lame name? Answer Person or Carmen San Diego? I guess “Carmen” and “San Diego” sort of go together since they’re both latin sounding. I think it’s just supposed to be something cute to appeal to kids, not something that adults are supposed to find witty.
Anyway, I recommend that you look at one of the travel guides in the library, like the Rough Guide to Italy (Perkins Reference 914.504 I88, R856x). Or purchase a Lonely Planet guide; they have a nice balance for normal people: not just hostels for backpackers and not the high-end stuff for old tourists in bermuda shorts, but a range in between.
Being held captive by the library in a secret carrol, AP hasn’t had the opportunity to investigate these places in person.
I think that getting a mix of the two things (secluded as well as a spicy night life) will be difficult. Maybe spend part of the time in a quiet, romantic village, and part of the time in a more cosmopolitan tourist spot. I’ve heard that Italy will have a more mature crowd than Greece, which will have a higher proportion of drunk teenagers. In the summer, you’re going to get crowds of people from northern Europe wherever you go.
