Buona Sera dal'Italia

Buona Sera! M and I are having a terrific time over here in the Italy. We've been to like, a million churches, the Uffizi, the Accademia (that's where the David is). Even for me, it's been a lot of art! If I see one more deposition from the cross... We're staying in a really nice hotel (a 16th c. palazzo!) with frescos on the walls and even a bidet! Yesterday I got a little cold, so that's been a drag, but one soldiers on.

Things have changed a lot since the last time I was in Italy (about 10 years ago!) I'm no longer a senorina, but a senora, and, you can get ice in your coke. Both of us bought shoes. We're eating excellent food and eating more gelato than you may think judicious.

Glad your both having a wonderful time, .....new shoes! Did you take any of your shopping bags along to share with the Italians? Good food!...that's fun also! The Art must be wonderful for you Kelly, soak it all in. How's it feel to be a senora? Must be that you look so young! Do they have enough ice over there to put in the American's Coke's?.....Are the Italians talking about the election that's coming up in America? Tell them about Obama.....Hope you are getting over your cold so that you can enjoy the rest of your stay. Have fun Mike and Kelly on your 10th Anniversary trip! Love from Dad (also mom)

Yum! Gelato! C and I ate it for breakfast and lunch when we were in Vegas. What's your favorite flavor?
