Arrivo in Firenze, Italia

Ciao tutti! Above is a picture taken last night of the sun setting over the Arno River. So far our time in Florence has been spent taking bus and walking tours, moving into our rooms, and emitting gallons of sweat - it is SO hot and humid here! Tonight we walked to get gelato, see the train station (so confusing!) and visit the Duomo di Firenze. Some interesting facts about life here: pedestrians do not have the right-of-way....street signs are posted on the sides of buildings rather than directly on the street corner....gelato is delicious! More to come soon, tutto il mio amore!

absolutely stunning view. Your Mom is counting the days since you've been in Italy. We girls (me, Kelly, Kim, Kerri and your Mom) had lunch at Dimitri's in Edmonds yesterday to celebrate my 71st birthday. We had a great time...were your ears ringing? (that means we were talking about you :-) Love Grandma...
