I made a second trip to Italy in February 2011. It was sponsored by the Wisconsin Alumni Association. “If you want to be a Badger, just come along with me…” It was a week in Rome with side trips to other points of interest.
The week of Badgers in Rome included a train trip for a day in Florence. As I had done a day in Florence before, I really wasn’t interested in that. It turned out to be a good call, since the rain poured on them for the whole day. Anyway, I hooked up with a couple from our group for a day trip to Naples and Pompeii.

I had spotted Jeri and Joel as fellow Badger travelers in the boarding area at O’Hare. Joel always wore his Big Red W jacket. They became good friends. Since neither Joel nor my husband were much into international travel, Jeri and I traveled the world together until she passed in 2019.
