Hi Everyone. We got into Milan yesterday and took the train down to Florence. We made it in at about 7pm after a 3 hour train ride. We had a little compartment all to ourselves for most of the trip, so it was fairly painless. We found our bed and breakfast, which has turned out to be much more bed than breakfast (although even the beds have produced some stories). The town of Florence is beautiful, especially after the sun has come out late today. The town is filled with tourists, but that still can”t ruin all of the great buildings and art. Mom and Sara have bought more things than you can imagine, and we are all carrying around about 10 pounds of bags as we write this. Everyone should expect some great gifts when we return. We had a great meal last night at an Italian pizzeria. Great pizza, spaghetti, pasta, and wine. Tonight we will probably take it easier, but we have been enjoying the food the whole time. We have walked all over town, it has been quite a chore. We will hopefully have a good rest tonight. Tonight is Sara and I”s anniversary, so we will try to do something special! We”ll be here for another couple of days, and then take the train down to Rome to spend a few more. We”ll check in as soon as possible. Hopefully we can get some pictures up soon, but as of now we are stuck with Internet Cafes. Sara and I can”t wait to get back! Only two weeks left until the U.S.! Mom says hi to Marci and everyone at work. Thanks for signing our guestbook! Also to Ted and Kymberly. We have been trying to figure out who the strange guy with the French berret is in all of our pictures. He keeps following us around. Ciao for now!
