Well, mom, dad, Isaac and I arrived in Verona, Italy about 5 hours ago after a loooong math-filled, view-amazing train ride from our hotel (hotel Das Beck) in Reutte, Austria.

Verona is pretty different from anything that I'm used to. It is really big and busy and loud and there are LOTS of people and tour busses. you walk down the alley-streets and ther are big shops on either side of you. If you look up, you see the different houses above all the shops with their shutters open.

It is really warm here. When we arrived, it was 80 degrees! It is supposed to rain tonight amlittle and then cool off a bit in the afternoon.

Our hotel is called "hotel Torcolo". We got two rooms and I have to share a room with Isaac (one of the worst experiences ever) and mom and dad hah the room right next door. He rooms are pretty small, (mom and dad's room is smaller than ours) but they have pretty big bathrooms.

If you walk out the hotel door and down the street Antony bit, you will find yourself in the town square and in front of you will be a huge beautiful government building with really big marble pillars and then, if you turn to your left, the colluseam arena is right in front of you. It it really really big and really old and there are soooooo many bricks, I can't imagine what it would've been like to build it.

   I am having fun! It just feels more uncomfortable when we get to totally new cities and it is busy and there are lots of people everywhere. But, recently, my stomach has started to just stop being hungry, so I like, never feel hungry and when I eat food, it makes my stomach feel weird. Except for the weird cinnamon roll my dad and I shared this evening.... But Imam starting to feel better and stuff now.

So far, one of my favorte parts was when we flew over Ireland!!! It was beautiful. We came upon it right as the sun was coming up, so you can imagine what the ocean looked like by it and all the different city lights glowing distinctly out of the dark, dawn haze. It was wonderful!! plus, I saw a shooting star while we were over it.

When we got to Innsbruck, Austria, to switch trains, we had about 2 hours to kill and got to go and get some food there. While we were there, Isaac was completely overjoyed to find that the place where we were eating at had wi-fi access. I as kinda glad too because we got to soups with Andrea!! She suggested that we just keep her on skype and take her on our vacation with us!

Tommorrow, we are going to explore around Verona more and possible go over to Venice but we haven't decided yet! (I hope so!!)

Well, this has been a long, informing post for you, but it was a good catch-up! Besides, we only have free wi-fi for 3 hours, so I need to do what I can with that!

I will inform you more about the things that happen tomorrow sometime soon, but there is no telling when we will get our wi-fi! I think we will be going to an Internet cafe tomorrow though!

Thank you for caring enough to read my novel of a post!
Auf Widersehen! Ciao!
