From Positano, Tuscany, and Rome

It’s been over a week…

Sorry, it’s been awhile since we last posted an entry but Internet connections have been hard to find. Anyway, we’ve spent some time in Capri, Tuscany and Rome and have been having a great time - though this heat wave is getting a bit tiresome. From the kids:

Hello, everybody, I am in over 100 degree whether. I am having a good time. In Tuscany we got our house that had the swimming pool. It was so big. We didn’t really stay in Tuscany that much. But we were in other towns a lot. Like we went to Pisa and saw the leaning tower of Pisa, too. My mom never came because she needed to go to Rome and pick up my grandma and then still come back. But, now we’re in Rome having a good time. Today we went to the coliseum and saw where all the gladiators, lions, and, slaves fought.

‘Ey. The last thing we did in Positano was go to Capri, a series of islands. We went open ocean swimming in grottos there. We also saw some towns on Capri. Then we left to go to Tuscany where we had rented out a small house. The house had a pool and a large number of bedrooms. In Tuscany we went to see a large town that was divided into many neighborhoods and had a large horse race every year. We also saw some medieval towns with castles and towers. Then we saw Vinci, the town where Leonardo de Vinci was born and where in the museum they showed some models of his designs. We also saw the Leaning Tower of Piza. And we saw Florence and got the 7^th Harry Potter. After Tuscany we went to Rome where we are now. We’ve seen the coloseum and the Vatican. The coliseum is the place where they pitched gladiators and animals in close-combat. The Vatican is the largest and most grand cathedral in the world.

Here, here, listen to me, um...yes…right…I get it… (sigh)wait, I’m not supposed to type this. I got the peventh hotter karry boos, no wait it is the “seventh Harry Potter book”. We came to Rome. We saw the sixth Harry Potter movie in Rome. We saw The Leaning Tower of Piza. We checked out the coliseum were the gladiators and lions fought. A bunch of people were dressed up as gladiators and taking pictures with people for money. We saw a bunch of medieval towns each with their own flag for a horse race that takes place once a year called the “Polio”. We went to the Mass, the Vatican, and the pantheon. We went to the Roman forum.
