Who can tell me about how to visit the Carrara quarries in Italy?  Fun?
Possible?  Forget it?

And, as long as I'm bothering everyone with my personal problems, has anyone
gone hiking in the Dolomites?  I'm having trouble planning a trip there next
summer - I need  especially first hand information on whether Castelrotto
would be a nice town to base in, or whether it combines the worst elements of
Aspen, Miami Beach and Ken Follett.
