We met there a few times during " Toerggelen" times in the Fall. Good fun, though full of German tourists at that time.

Thanks for the spell check.
At this point, I've lost any hope of things ever improving here in "The Land of the Free". We seem to have reached a tipping point, at every level, of governmental corruption, indifference and lawlessness. I don't see a way back or even a way to halt the decline. A revolution would just be a way for the government to eliminate those of us "surplus to requirements".
I hope I'm wrong but I've decided to start learning Italian.
