ITALY!!!!






Well, we are home again! 16 days away in a foreign country is enough to make you never want to come home again...except for we love our family and friends!!! Dustin and I left for Italy on Sept 22 and flew home Oct 8. We rented a car and drove all over the little country...We visited Tuscany, Florence, Rome, Venice Lake Como, Lucca, Pisa, and little towns all in between. We saw so many beautiful places and so much history and art. It makes us want to go back and learn more about our world history and events that took place in the places we visited. We went with some of our good friends and got to experience the "real Italian life" We ate so much good food...pizza (and yes, I ate lots of it), bread, pasta, bread, pasta and more pizza. But I think dustin and I managed to walk 12 miles a day so we kept the pounds about where we had them when we left. Here are a few pics to look at, we took over 1000 of them. Enjoy!!
