Good evening, David, and welcome to Tripatini! It's great to have you with us -- and we think you'll find our site productive as well as interesting and enjoyable.
To get the most out of Tripatini, we recommend you take a moment to join several of our many groups which you may find of particular use, such as Media Only, Massachusetts, Vermont, Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Australia, Japan, Italy, Sailing/Boating, Cruising, Adventure Travel, the Caribbean, Dominican Republic, and other Caribbean islands, Eating/Drinking the World, Travel Photography, our Spanish and Italian language/culture clubs, and plenty of others covering many other topics and most destinations across the globe.
