Here we are on our way to Italy! Wow, what a trip! We fit right in. I don't think anyone knew that we were tourists. We packed perfectly. Just as I suspected everyone had on safari clothes and cameras strapped across their bodies. Thank goodness I did some research on the country and their style before we went. There is nothing worse then sticking out.
Seriously, we did have an amazing time. Venice was our favorite followed closely by Tuscany then Rome, Florence and Sienna. The food was good and the beer was great. I have never had so many carbs in my life. The wine was amazing too. We brought some home with us and now feel like real adults because we have multiple bottles of wine in the house that we haven't drank yet. The people watching was awesome and all the old stuff was cool too. I particularly enjoyed the 566 pictures of Mary and the baby Jesus we saw over the 10 days we were there. There were quite a few pictures of him looking quite buff. I think they were trying to depict him in his weight lifting days. When he was first born he looked like this....
Just a few months later with a little hard work and a few protein shakes he looked like this but younger and more baby like...
Anyway, now we are home and have moved into our new house. There were no major catastrophes and nothing got broken. Someone, who will remain nameless, did do some rather stealthy drive by mattress droppings around town. If anyone is in need look around the Main Street area dumpsters. Ssshhh!
There has been some really exciting things happening lately. I would like to continue on about all of this but I have slipped into a food coma and am quickly loosing brain function and my sense of humor. In order to not loose any more I will call it a day. More details to come about nothing.
