More City Hall Change: A Mayor Taking a Break
By MICHAEL M. GRYNBAUM
The mayor and his family will take a nearly 10-day tour of Italy this
month, the longest out-of-town trip by a New York City mayor in more
than 25 years.
The
last mayor to routinely take extended trips to Europe was Edward I.
Koch, who in the 1980s journeyed to Ireland, Poland, Portugal, Spain and
other destinations during his second and third terms.
Mr. Giuliani rarely took a day off
in his first years in office, although he indulged in some weekend
jaunts to the Hamptons, trips that became more frequent as his final
term neared its end.
