		<description>If you're serious about Pisa and Cinque Terre, I'd recommend going Florence -&#62; Pisa for half a day -&#62; Cinque Terre (Riomaggiore is probably my favorite of the five towns for staying overnight) -&#62; Milan -&#62; continue with itinerary. Personally, I'd take Pisa/Cinque Terre over Venice...I found Venice to be great for a day, maybe two if you ferry out to the glassworks, but if you want some BEAUTIFUL countryside and amazing towns, Cinque Terre is the way to go.

Good luck!</description>

		<description>Wow, you're going to have a great summer. 

Based on my experiences last year, here's a recommendation in favor of the &lt;a href="http://www.sleepwell.be/" rel="nofollow"&gt;Sleep Well&lt;/a&gt; hostel in Brussels, the Paris Metro and &lt;a href="http://www.parismuseumpass.com/en/home.php" rel="nofollow"&gt;Museum Pass&lt;/a&gt;, and wholeheartedly against the &lt;a href="http://www.hihostels.com/dba/hostel020001.en.htm" rel="nofollow"&gt;D'Artagnan&lt;/a&gt; hostel in Paris. Also, since you're in a group, you might find that splitting hotel rooms will come out cheaper and/or more effective than hostels in many cities.

Sweet! Make sure to write along the way and post when you get back.</description>

		<description>You're totally right.  Everyone says we have to go to Venice, but I suppose what's holding us back is the out-of-the-way train ride.  Screw it.  We should go.

Thanks for the inspiration, Eric!</description>

		<description>Dude, you can't leave Venice for a "maybe." You have to go. I've been twice - it's one of my favorite places.</description>
