The
trip, as all your
trips, was great-the perfect mixture of baseball & touring. Daniel
was the best a guide could be. Of course, I am already thinking
about next Feb. in the Caribbean somewhere.

Baseball Adventures is a great way to see
the world. The customized schedule is a perfect balance between playing
baseball in exotic venues, touring the cities within the
country mingling with the locals. Every trip I've met
great people and have made lasting friendships. Most
all have the same passion for playing the game of baseball.
These friendships I hope to carry for years to come. My
experiences with Baseball Adventures have been priceless. A great
getaway for a week or two playing ball and hanging with the guys.
Before you know it you will be back at home wishing you were still
there and counting the days till the next Baseball Adventure.
Best Regards, Mark Foerster, Michigan |

| Thank
you for the wonderful trip. You and John Baessler did an
excellent job. I hope to play baseball again, maybe some day I
can go on another trip. Mike McClellan, Texas |
| Thanks
for everything,
it was a great trip. Terry Lee, San Francisco |
| What
a
fun trip. Thanks again. AAARRRRRR, it's drivin' me
nuts!! Gene Sinclair, Robinson, Illinois |
| We had a great time
in Sorrento with Dennis , Corey, Sherry & Cobe, and Donna &
Mark for the few days they were there. If you make it back to
Italy, the Isle of Capri is beautiful and the Blue grotto is
amazing. We also rented a scooter and drove the coast to Positano
which was a lot of fun. Nice meeting everyone and as Carlos would
say
"Heep Heep Horay"!!! Ciao, John & Cindy Angelesco, San Jose, CA |

Dennis,
you
did a great job, as
I know I only had 1 real night out for drinking during the entire.
tour.. OH,, the Joust counts too.
Its
impossible to please
everyone on a trip like this but Dennis, you understand the hard work
necessary and pulled it off.
Steve Fagin, Chicago Illinois |
| I
would
like to mention, as all of you already have, that it was an amazing
trip -- my first further than 1000 miles from home -- that I know I
will remember for a lifetime. I can never think of pizza the same
again... henceforth tempted to add blue cheese and walnuts! And
it
will surely take some time for nutella-laden crèpes and
multi flavored
gelati to fade from my thoughts and dreams. But most of all
I would
like to thank all of you for making it such an enjoyable trek through
italy. Despite the age difference, I had a pleasant time getting
to
meet and chat with all of you. It would be a delight to cross
paths
again in the future! Ciao Corey Brown, Anaheim, CA |
| I
just wanted to say that
Marianna and I had a great time touring with all of you. I can only imagine the number of hours you
put
into the planning of the trip, and it certainly worked out well. Thanks again Dennis. Allan & Marianna Green, Philo, CA |
| Dennis,
thank you so much for
all you did to make this such a fabulous
trip for all of us. The tours and experiences of Milan,
Verona,
Florence, Venice, Rome, Arezzo and Lake Como will always be
cherished
as major Bucket List additions. Never could I have imagined the
magnitude of the coliseum, or the Sistine Chapel, or the Duomo or
cathedrals without actually being there. The Joust was
phenomenal, the
boat taxis, the cobblestone streets, narrow staircases leading up to
shops, bridges were all such wonderful sites to see and be a part
of.
The food, yummmmm, But the new friends, Priceless. I really
enjoyed
all of you, your energies, humor, and adventurous spirits were a
perfect mix for a wonderful vacation. Thank you all for such
wonderful
memories, Lets stay in touch, and possibly travel again together in the
future. Love ya all, Julie de Trinidad, Middletown, CA |
| This
was one of the most enjoyable trips I have ever taken, both from
the incredible
sites, and group of people who made it that more fun! It's hard
to believe you can throw 19 people together, some meeting for the first
time and get along as well as I think we did. I know I enjoyed
every ones company! Julie and I enjoyed the remaining few days at
Lake Como
– a perfect spot to unwind a little after the jam packed itinerary
Dennis created for us. It all went by so fast! Tony Shimetz, Middletown, CA |
| I too want
to let everyone know
what a GREAT time Mark and I had. It
was a very special trip. Meeting all of you and spending time
together
was wonderful. I will have to say it has not been easy quitting
Gelato
cold turkey! I had heard stories about gelato but didn't believe
I
could get hooked. I didn't have any in Como, tried my first one
in
Milan. By the time I got to Rome I was having double gelato days,
but
the worst was in Sorrento. 3 gelatos a day!!! And the
schiacciata
(pizza bread)! I really believe I could live on pizza bread and
gelato. Seriously, the memories of this trip will last
forever. Our best to all of you, Donna & Mark Fess, Santa Rosa, CA |
| Dennis-
I wanted to
personally thank you for all of the BLOOD, SWEAT and TEARS that you put
into the Italian Baseball Tour just completed. What a fantastic
time!!!!!!!! I want to thank you also for the great PATIENCE that you
displayed in dealing with some of the "straying cats", lost items, late
show-er-uppers, and inevitable annoyances that occur on a venture like
this involving 20 independent human beings, tour guides and bus drivers
(to say nothing of unexpected injuries). It was an experience I'll
never ever forget and I'm having almost as much fun re-living it as
actually participating in it. I really enjoyed talking with Corey
and observing
him taking everything in like a sponge....you could never give him a
greater gift than bringing him along on this trip. I also enjoyed
talking baseball with you....and you didn't even hang yourself during
some of the long winded stories!! My best wishes to you for many
more
years of two of your obvious passions- touring and baseball. Regards, Jasonini & The Entire Italian Tour Gang- What a thrill and a privilege to have completed the "Big Italian Adventure" with all of you!!!!! It truly was a once in a lifetime experience and I feel that I have been very fortunate to have met and bonded with so many great people. And as an added bonus from this trip, I am looking into a second career as a "David Model". I am hopeful of writing a trip summary from my perspective (once I recover- approx 1-2 months) and will copy everyone on it. Also am looking forward to seeing the many great photos that were taken. Caio!!!!! Ange " Micione" Ford, Akron, OH See: Angelo's Big Adventure |
| Paul and I also want
to let all of you know what a
fabulous time we had
in Italy, and most of all sharing our time with such a wonderful group
of people. It truly couldn't have been a better time
(notwithstanding Alberto our Rome tour guide who added some laughs to
our trip as well!) The memories of our trip are very
very special,
and as we share our trip with our family and friends, we find that
there are so many fun, interesting, and special stories to share that
they are endless and after 5 days back, we still have shared but a
portion of all there is to tell. We feel very
blessed to have met
all of you and to have shared the experiences we did with the Italian
people as well as each other. Our best to all of you
and we look
forward to keeping in touch. Dennis, you did a terrific job at planning this overseas adventure--we are certain that this was a tremendous undertaking and you took good care of your team! Thank you for looking after our comfort, all the connections from city to city, and planning it in such a way that the boys could play ball and the ladies had some time to shop! We look forward to see what is planned in the future. We wish Lorenzo and Anthony a very speedy recovery with only great memories left as proof of the "double header". Yours in friendship, Paul Perantinides and Elisa Pizzino, Akron, OH |

Sherry
and I would also like to express our appreciation to everyone for
making these past two weeks such a wonderful and unforgettable
experience. We certainly feel like we have a new set of friends
with
whom we will forever share Italian memories. Thank you, Dennis, for
pulling this off and bringing us all together on our Italian baseball
adventure.

| I had a great time in Cuba and
would do
it again without question. Michael Bessett, Tampa, FL |
| Great job on the trip.
That was a really great trip and I enjoyed spending time with old
friends and as well as making new ones. Hope to see you all again
next year in Cuba. Blair Bessett, Seattle, WA |
| I was late to work today.
I
sat out in front of my house for an hour waiting for Alberto and Jorge
to pick me up. It was a pleasure meeting everyone and hope to
make another trip in the near future. I wanted to
thank you for putting together a great trip to Cuba. It was a
dream come true to visit Cuba and play ball against some of the most
passionate players in the world. Everyday was an adventure and I
thank you for the opportunity. Aron Levinson, Los Angeles, CA |
| Many thanks to you all for
making the trip very special for me. It was great to see those
that I had met before and to make new friends as well. Gene Sinclair, Robinson, IL |
| Cuba was a great trip. I
really enjoyed getting to know all of you better. It's great to
be with a group of guys who like to play baseball. Doc Sid Rosenblatt, Scottsdale, AZ |
| A personal thanks for a great
trip. I appreciate all of the time and work you put into making
these things come to life. Del Phillips, Frackton, PA |
| Great trip! I should have
defected to Cuba..lolol Damian Perkins, Highland, IN |
| Just wanted to drop a line and
say thanks for another great trip. It was nice to have some new
faces on the trip, and as always there was a lot of laughs. Mac,
thanks for all the hard work. Looking forward to next year. Mark Foerster, Detroit, MI |
