Have you been keeping up with the recent news on ISIS?
I ask, because the reason I'm fearful is because reports from CNN and MSNBC have stated that about 500 EU citizens, mostly Muslims, recent converts or not, traveled to Syria to FIGHT with Isis and are now coming home to bring the terror to Europe and the West in general.
It's worth noting that the same security analysts said that about 100 American citizens did the same, but that's a whole lot less, and I tend
to feel a little more secure in my own country.
My plans are to travel to Croatia in about mid-Septembr,
(It's my maternal grandparents country of origin) and Mr. Whathell
and I have been there many times). We will be staying abou 10 days
and because there are no direct flights to Croatia, we must stop in
Frankfurt, going and coming.
How nice that you are in Italy -- for a couple of months, no less!...I've
been there only once, to the Venice area with the spouse on a business trip -- would love to go again, especially since there are ferries going
across the Adriatic to Croatia (I thought that might be safer) but there are
no non-stop flights from Chicago, and I figured it would be a logistical nightmare.
