Life in Italy - The First Week
Our first week in Italy is coming to a close and I think we're all finally getting adjusted to the time change. My son Michael began school here today and we may have found a home and a car to purchase.
I've got so much I want to share. From our exhausting trip over, to all the little things I'm experiencing. I've got to tell you about the food. The public toilets and even little things I've done that seriously, could only happen to me. I've got notes, and I plan to share them all. For now, I thought I'd share some photos from our first week. It hasn't been all briefings and sleep deprivation.
Ciao,

Love Notes To Italy - I can't believe I live here!
I am in love with Italy, so much so, I couldn't help but write a few love notes... Living here and creating a life is going to be so exciting. Challenging I'm sure, but what I can only imagine will be an adventure. I keep pinching myself because part of me can't believe it's real. I feel so blessed.
