The only reason I went to Molise and to the town of Colle d’Anchise was to visit my cousins on my father’s side of the family. My cousin Antonella and I connected a few years ago on FaceBook and this was the third time I have visited her and her family. It was a short visit but I got to see everyone.
Meet my Italian cousins!
Antonella and her husband Michele
Santina, Antonella’s youngest sister
Carolina with Santina, also a sister
Pasqualina, Antonella’s aunt with Antonella’s Nonna Carolina
Federica, Antonella’s daughter
They are all so happy and nice. I enjoyed my time with them.

Margie, you may be distantly related to my husband too. He is Antonella’s first cousin. Antonella’s father and my MIL are siblings. We were there this summer. We too stayed in Amalfi and I’m enjoying revisiting through your posts. I too love, love, love visiting Italy and I’m not even Italian.
