ciao bella

it really happened... we are in italy. it has been quite the adventure thus far. the past week we have spent our time touring through italy and loving every minute of it. this internet cafe has no port for our sd card- so sorry no pictures, but rest assured... some cool posts will come when we get a chance. so far we have visited bergome, florence, pisa, cinque terra and venice. everything we see is out of a book, i swear. today we spent the whole day getting lost in venice, which turns out to be very easy. we just got off the bus and started winding our way through canals and skinny streets all day with no real agenda. we would find cool antique shops, cute little ladies and the most gorgeous views of the canals. we loved every minute of it.
really- i apologize about not having any pictures but to satisfy your craving, i highly suggest googling cinque terra. we spent 2 days there and roughed out the hardest, most beautiful hike in the world. this place is AMAZING.
tomorrow morning we fly to barcelona to start our sweep of spain and hopefully there we can get some pictures going.
we miss all of you already and love you all.
