Seed, scattered and sown,
Wheat, gathered and grown,

Is not the bread we break,
A sharing in our Lord?
Is not the cup we bless,
The blood of Christ outpoured?

Will wither and will die,
The seed within good ground
Will flower and have life.

As wheat upon the hills
Was gathered and was grown,
So may the Church of God
Be gathered into one.

Bread, broken and shared as one,
The Living bread of God.

Vine, fruit of the land,

Italy Weather In October

Can we talk Italy weather in October? 

Question by Rachael.

Mom is traveling to Tuscany and Amafi in October and wants to know what to pack. Warm clothes or something fit for chilly days?  I know weather can be in the 70s during the day but that can feel different based on humidity level. Will it be too chilly for knee length sundresses even with a cardigan or too hot for jeans? 

Packing before travel can be overwhelming because of unpredictable weather changes. 

Last year in Italy, it was in the 80s in October. I didn’t even get to wear my jackets so it's a good idea to pack clothing you can use for layering. It's the best advice is my straight answer.

At night it wasn’t bad. We wear sweaters and layers. I honestly can tell you it was downright hot but that really depends on how cold is cold for you..

I’m going back in 3 weeks as well and will just buy something if I get too cold for peace of mind. Some people get cold easily. If you are a traveler who gets cold easily when it is not cold for others, you may have to consider packing one or two sweaters. It was not “cold” and  someone who is  cold all the time when it’s below 60 better bring some layers to keep warm. That way, when it feels warm, you can  take some layers off to make you feel comfortable. 

Right now in September, it's showing the low is 45 today in Tuscany. But of course it could just be a cold spell.

For someone who’s been there

in November and December many times and yet have been sweating, can be confusingfor you to even think. The Italians are dressed like it's winter in Alaska and you'll be waring shorts because it's hor! Here's  a spoiler alert for you. Italians dress for the season, not the temps. So, if I'll be in Italy in early October and if I'm cold, I'll buy warm clothes there as I will not pack heavy clothes! Feel like a traveler and be like a traveler, go shopping in foreign land. Make the most memorable moments of your vacation trip. You heard that saying when you're in Rome, be a Roman? If you'll be in Italy then be an Italian dress for the season not the temps if you can take it. If not, don't worry about what to pack, shopping is the answer.

The shopping is so good. You feel like a real traveler at the same time like local.

If you'll be in Sorrento, you'll definitely need to pack your light clothes for the south! 

If doing a trip to Ischia, Florence, Portovenere and Parma, it will probably be warm. Checking the weather now in September,  it is in the 80’s. I would suggest layers. A lightweight jacket in the evenings would be good.

2 years ago I was in Rome in November and had to buy T-shirts at Zara it was so warm!

The best advise when traveling:

Pack clothing for warm and cool weather and you can add a layer when its chilly or take off some layers when it's hot. No carry on only for me 😆

11-Day Japan Cruise Spring Flowers Explorer 2026

Cruises forJapan in 2026 is here! Below you can see the itinerary we picked for your next Japan cruise. Check it out!

TOKYO (YOKOHAMA), JAPAN

Yokohama and Edo began life as sleepy fishing villages. That changed in the early 17th century after Tokugawa Ieyasu became Shogun. Edo became the center of political power in Japan, a position the city retained even after the restoration of Imperial rule in 1866.
Contemporary Tokyo may be the most astonishing city on earth. It's a paradoxical mix of ancient tradition and postmodern culture. The Ginza - an international shopping mecca - stands near the serene grounds of the Imperial Palace, and the hyper-speed of 21st century consumerism is mysteriously reconciled with the elegance and serenity of traditional culture. Tokyo provides the traveler with a dizzying experience.
With the Meiji Restoration of 1868, Edo was renamed Tokyo, the "Eastern Capital," to distinguish it from the old imperial capital at Kyoto, the "Western Capital."

HIROSHIMA

On August 6, 1945, human history was irrevocably altered when the American bomber Enola Gay dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima. The bomb was code-named "Little Boy," but its detonation left half the city in ruins and aflame. Today, Hiroshima is a monument not only to the destructive forces harnessed by men but also to the indomitable will of the human spirit to overcome tragedy. At the heart of the city lies Peace Memorial Park and the Atomic Bomb Dome. The gutted walls of the city's old Industry Promotion Hall and the skeletal frame that supported its copper dome, vaporized in the blast, are instantly recognizable symbols of Hiroshima.
Travelers to Hiroshima will discover a more serene note at nearby Miyajima Island. One of the top-three scenic spots of Japan, the island is home to ancient Itsukushima Shrine, a designated National Treasure.

BUSAN, SOUTH KOREA

The second largest city in South Korea, Busan is your gateway to a fascinating land whose culture is a unique amalgam of old and new. Modern high-rise towers dwarf ancient Buddhist temples. The city's bustling business district offers a stark contrast to the serene grounds of Yongdusan Park. In short, Busan is a microcosm of South Korea, a nation whose startling economic success often obscures one of Asia's most sophisticated and venerable cultures.
Busan was the scene of bitter fighting during the Korean War. The United Nations Memorial Cemetery marks the final resting place for the troops from 16 nations who gave their lives during the conflict.

NAGASAKI, JAPAN

For most travelers, Nagasaki is a symbol of the horror and the inhumanity of war. An estimated 75,000 people perished in 1945 when the city became the second target of a nuclear attack. Today, Nagasaki's Peace Park and Atomic Bomb Museum draw visitors from around the world.
But this beautiful city on Kyushu offers other sights. Often described as the San Francisco of Japan, the city occupies verdant hills surrounded by a deep-water bay. For three centuries, Nagasaki was Japan's sole window on the world. The city is also celebrated as the setting for Puccini's opera "Madame Butterfly."

KAGOSHIMA, JAPAN

From the 12th century to the Meiji Restoration of 1868, Kagoshima was the chief stronghold of the mighty Shimazu clan. The city lies at the top of the Satsuma Peninsula, a mountainous, geothermal wonderland of hot springs and geysers. The area is also rich in modern Japanese history: Saigo Takamori and the Satsuma samurai were leaders of the Meiji Restoration that toppled the shogun and restored the Emperor to power in 1868. In 1877, dissatisfied with the direction of the new government, Saigo led the Satsuma Rebellion, which ended in his death and the final defeat of the samurai.
The symbol of Kagoshima is Sakura Jima - the volcanic island that sits just offshore. The volcano has erupted over 30 times in recorded history.

MIYAZAKI (ABURATSU), JAPAN

Boasting the second warmest temperatures in Japan, Miyazaki offers a playground of outdoor activities that take full advantage of its balmy breezes and aquamarine waters. A resort atmosphere permeates Miyazaki, fragranced by blooms from local botanical gardens. Emerald green golf courses, some of the best surfing in Japan, and a zoo with the largest number of flamingos in captivity in all of Japan add to the festive atmosphere. A Peace Tower, built with stones from throughout Asia anchors the city and Heiwadai Park and is one of the most noted landmarks. Visit Haniwa Gardens where over 400 replica haniwa (burial statues) make for wonderful photo opportunities, and see Miyazaki's history and culture on display at The Miyazaki Prefectural Museum of Nature and History, located on the same grounds as the picturesque Miyazaki Shrine. For a change of pace, stop into the Miyazaki Science Center where an animatronics "Dr. Cosmo" welcomes you to this hands-on museum. Looking for a little adventure? Try a side trip to Aoshima, a small island just off the coast of Miyazaki City, and enjoy the charming Aoshima Shrine and over 400 species of subtropical plants. The options are endless in Miyazaki to soak up local color…or just soak up the sun!

KOCHI, JAPAN

Kochi sits on the broad alluvial plain facing Urado Bay. This city in Shikoku takes its name from the great feudal castle that sits at its very heart. Completed in 1611, Kochi Castle was the seat of Yamauchi Kazutoyo, a noted warrior who supported Tokugawa Ieyasu in his successful quest to become Shogun. Tosa Province and Kochi Castle were Yamauchi's reward for faithful service. There is an historical irony here: 250 years later, a Kochi native son - a former low-ranked samurai and now ronin named Sakamoto Ryoma - played a pivotal role in bringing the Tokugawa Shogunate to an end and restoring the Emperor of Japan to political prominence. The prize once awarded for faithful service had become a hotbed of support for the Meiji Restoration.
Kochi is one of the wettest places in Japan - and a frequent target for cyclonic storms or typhoons. Southeast of the city, warm oceans currents washing against the Aki Mountains create a subtropical landscape of hibiscus, palm and ficus at Muroto-Anan Quasi-National Park.

TOKUSHIMA, JAPAN

Born as a 16th century castle town whose remains now lay scattered near a park and museum, Tokushima is best known for its colorful summer dance festival, the Awa Odori. But it may be Mother Nature who garners the most attention. Surrounded by 3,280-foot-tall mountains that hint at the wonders that lie beyond, the city is the perfect gateway to the mesmerizing Naruto whirlpools, the panoramic views from atop Mt. Bizan, and the spectacular gorges and vine bridges of Iya Valley. Whether you're entranced with the ways of the warrior, or under the spell of the extraordinary attractions, Tokushima offers exciting new experiences and unforgettable new adventures.

SHIMIZU (for Mt. Fuji), JAPAN

A mesmerizing landscape, a revered cultural history, and Japan's most sacred volcano are just a few of the many delights beckoning you to come and explore this ancient city. While Shimizu may have the reputation as being bustling and modern, its cultural and spiritual side is on display in the form of ancient and enthralling shrines. Of course, it may be the sacred and snow-capped Mount Fuji that garners the most attention. Towering over the region at approximately 12,388 feet above sea level, the active volcano, designated a "place and source of artistic inspiration" by UNESCO is just one of the many unforgettable adventures Shimizu inspires.

Key Things To Know Before Traveling To Amsterdam

Before traveling to Amsterdam, it's a great idea to know a little bit of Amsterdam. It maybe your first time or you have been there once but brushing up your memory of what Amsterdam is all about helps to create an amazing experience when traveling to many destinations. For one, there is the rail that connects you to the whole of Europe. Be a tourist not kust a traveler. Explore, Experience and have a great adventure!

Here are 20 to know but there's more for you to explore :

1. Transportation: The city has an excellent public transport system including trams, buses, and trains. Biking is also popular.
2. Language: Dutch is the official language, but most people speak English well.
3. Currency: The currency is the Euro (€). Credit cards are accepted, but cash is still commonly used. It's best to carry a mix of cash and cards. Haggling at flea markets is okay.
4. Weather: The weather can be unpredictable, so bring layers and an umbrella, especially in fall and spring. It’s a city where people dress hip but casual (jeans and nice sneakers or boots, for example) and mix-and-match layers since the year-round weather is unpredictable. A light trench coat or windbreaker jacket is essential for all seasons besides winter, when a proper coat and warm gear are needed.
5. Culture: Amsterdam is known for its liberal culture. Respect local customs and be mindful of the rules around drugs and alcohol. Smoking marijuana and drinking in public is illegal and considered poor etiquette by Amsterdam natives. Taking photos of s– workers in the Red Light District is strictly prohibited.
6. Safety: Amsterdam is generally safe, but be aware of pickpockets in tourist hotspots. Watch out for pickpockets, especially walking around Amsterdam’s busy squares and typical visitor areas. Stay aware, and don't keep all your documents and valuables on you. Carry a copy of travel documents.
7. The Dutch are known for being extremely direct. If a local shares a blunt, unvarnished opinion with you, it comes from a place of honesty rather than rudeness.
8. Local Etiquette: Be polite and use "alstublieft" (please) and "dank u" (thank you).
9. Food: Try local specialties like Stroopwafels, Haring, and Dutch pancakes.
10. Cycling is one of the most popular ways to get around Amsterdam and bike thieves can be very capable. Use one lock for the front wheel (attached to the bike frame) and the other for the back, preferably attached to a post, bike rack or some other structure mounted to the ground. Also, pay attention to signage regarding bike parking. Bicycle racks near tram and train stations and in certain public squares are usually best, or you may risk it being removed by the police. Never walk in a cycling lane, or you'll risk the wrath of an angry local on wheels. Always take a good look both ways before crossing – bicycles are silent, but an accident can be very serious for cyclists and pedestrians.
11. Amsterdam is not a 24/7 city. Opening hours in shops are generally from about 10am to 6pm, and 8pm for supermarkets. Many shops and grocers do not open on Sundays (with the exception of busy tourist areas like Nieuwendijk and Kalverstraat). Coffeeshops tend to open in the morning and close around midnight, while bars and clubs go much later until 3 or 4am.
12. Pre-purchase tickets for convenience. At museums and galleries, it’s best to plan for long queues – especially during the high season from June to August. Ticketed time slots (most can be downloaded to your phone) are available at popular sights like the Anne Frank Huis and Van Gogh Museum and should be booked at least six weeks in advance.
13. In 2024, Amsterdam's tourist tax – which is added to the cost of accommodation per night – has risen from 7% to 12.5%, making it now the most expensive in Europe. The tax is charged at a percentage of your accommodation cost, and is payable on arrival.
14. Be careful around canals as most canals have no barriers.
15. Buy an OV-chipkaart for travel around the city. It is highly recommended for public transport since it’s more convenient than single tickets and is easily reloadable at machines or online. It's available for purchase from ticketing machines and supermarkets. Note: you need to touch on and touch off, including when you're getting off trams. Otherwise, you'll pay a hefty fee.
16. Tipping is not expected in Amsterdam where hospitality workers receive a fair wage for their professions, and are not dependent on tip like elsewhere.
17. The Dutch are known for the oranjekoorts (orange fever) or oranjegekte (orange craze). Wear orange and make some friends.
18. Tulip bulbs purchased at Amsterdam’s Bloemenmarkt can be shipped back to countries such as the United States, but an official certificate is needed for customs. Look for the sticker that says, “To the Plant Protection Service of the United States and Canada.” The additional certificate must be dated within six weeks of travel (otherwise, it’s best to have the seller ship them).
19. Most varieties of Dutch cheeses will make it through customs, although typically unpasteurized and raw cheeses may not. Cheese should also be vacuum-bagged (for the sake of your fellow travelers as well as for health and safety reasons).
20. Medical: Amsterdam has an abundance of English-speaking doctors and medical care services targeted towards travelers, such as Hoteldoc and Amsterdam Tourist Doctors. For urgent medical care, dial 112 for emergencies or +31 20 570 9500 directly for an ambulance.
