Agreed about a week being too much in Rome...especially with kids, I think it's nice to have a change of pace at some point.
Will look at Cortona....haven't heard of that one.

The best food is on the streets of old naples!! Arancini in paper cones for 1 euro... a man.
I went to school in Cortona. It is a picturesque Tuscan town along the main line between Rome and Florence (camucia station, 2 or 3 south of Arezzo.) It was an etruscan capital, and so the walls around it (still standing) pre date the foundation of Rome by ~1 or 200 years.
The film "under the Tuscan Sun" was filmed there.
Also, Conan O'Brien visited it once, it was funny.
