Volare . . . whoa-oh
Jun. 11th, 2004 10:40 amWell. So I'm updating this from the basement of Dad's conference center in Verona. This has been an . . . interesting week. The first three or four days I was so homesick I wasn't enjoying myself much. I think the thought process runs like this: I miss Whitman. I am not at Whitman. Ergo, I must be home. I am not home. If I can't be at Whitman, I want to be at home. I'm homesick. Or something like that.
You Idahoans will enjoy this. We get off the airplane, get in the car, and start our drive across north Italy. What do we see in the first ten minutes?
1. Rigs.
2. A deer crossing sign.
3. A tractor.
It's like we never left!
La Spezia was really nice--a small city on the coast. We wandered around there and one day took a boat to the Cinqueterre, which is absolutely stunning. Too many tourists, though. Go in the off season. Sunday we drove cross-country to Verona, and we've been here ever since. I'll write more about it later.
In conclusion, have wonderful days, all of you, and I'll be back next week.
