Where in the World is Matt?

I couldn't resist posting these three emails from my brother Matt regarding his travels to Giuliana's wedding in Italy. For some reason I can picture him so clearly and it cracks me up every time I think of it. By the way, he's emailing from the Blackberry she got him recently. It's complete with international service for this trip.

Email 1
I made it to germany !!! Thank god for those sleeping pills - the gay flight attendent moved me up to business class and got me an entire row so I could lay across and sleep. He also brought me ice cream and plenty to drink - off to a great start !!! Almost to italy !! Love and caio - matt

Email 2
Plane - train - taxi - now boat !!! Sailing to the island of capri !!! Nobody speaks english - the views from the boat are spectacular - something I have never seen - old. Ancient buildings on hills - the men are either extremely good looking or frumpy - no in between . But so far there was nothing better than waking up in italy ! (Since I arrived in the dark) - I am off to go wake up g and bill at the hotel quisisana - that is where the wedding recpt also is - they told me to sleep in and rest but I couldn't!!! Oh one more thing - everyone smokes.

Email 3
I have to stay writing on this thing to stay focused on something the boat is bouncing on the water - so iam just going to keep writing - I think I drank too. Much coffee - I am a little bit too awake - I have two heavy suitcases and a duffle bag with me keep in mind - I have come to hate them emensly but I guard them with my life because they have wedding stuff in them - including the runner for the church isle - I can only compare my relationship with my suitcases to the movie Not With Out My Daughter starring Sally Field - I am Sally and where I go so do the suitcases - - tomorrow we start taping for the show . . I am excited to see g and bill - I have not had a conversation with anybody for 24 hours which is rare for me - ok - well that is all for now - I see we are getting close - love - matt
