Your instructions were great and the trip was marvelous, easy and FUN! While video is not permitted in the Villa I never-the-less posted an HD YouTube video of our visit with nice shots of the villa's exterior and gardens. My video text lists visiting hours and mentions that one should ask those in the small entrance building where exactly you must walk to catch the return bus. My HD YouTube video is found at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSGwV0rhIp4 Other than your post we found little written about this villa which made the visit all the better. Again thanks for the heads up. steve tanenbaum Author of The Cheapskate's Guide to Vacations PS: Our upcoming free online travel newsletter will feature an article on this 1/2 day trip (with full credit to your article of course) A LINK to the newsletter will publish on 3/1/11 and appear in the text under our eclectic promo video at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZ0zl1jVhPI I read your post whilst researching for our two-month visit to Italy which found us living in Firenze for a month this past September.

It's definitely not an easy trip to explain, so I'm ecstatic that you were able to get there with my instructions. You know what, considering a lot of villas are opening up for the summer I may just have to do another post about them. Hope you enjoyed your trip (and I was once a student in New York City too...)!

Thank You so much. Wish you had instructions on the other villas.
