LTU is offering sale fares for flights between New York and several cities in Germany. Fares start at $398 round-trip, and destinations include Munich, Berlin, and Hamburg.
US Airways beat LTU’s fares for four of the five routes I checked. The only exception was the Hamburg route, on which Air Canada, Alitalia, American, Austrian, British Airways, Continental, Emirates, KLM, Lufthansa, Northwest, Swiss, and United had lower fares. Before you book, shop around to ensure you get the best deal on your route.

About the city…
Rome, a breathtaking city with a certain air of timelessness about itself is the capital of Italy and the most populated commune in the country. Mythology tells us that Rome gets its name from its founders, Romulus and Remus though archaeological evidence suggests that the city grew from pastoral settlements on the palatine hill. The Leonardo da vinci airport or the Fiumicino Airport is well connected to different parts of the globe by most of the major air carriers.

So, if you do decide to visit Costa Calida makes sure to check out Aguilas F.C. Museum that is a must for every soccer enthusiast, and there is also an ethnic museum of miniatures known as Angel Reinon, while over in Lorca there is the Archaeological Museum where you can find displays of finds from prehistoric times.

Photos by Otto Ferens on January 4th, 2007
Sorry to put two slide shows back to back, but Mercier Press wanted a more colourful photo for the book cover than the ones I sent them previously (see here). I have to say that I think that vanilla could be the new black, and with a bit of melting action nothing more is needed, but I have to defer to professionals! Anyway, the above slide shows are the fruits of a photo session this afternoon, and I shot four cones together to add a bit of colour. I’d love to know what you, my valued readers, think!
