Alright everyone, calm down. Its recap time. It has taken me awhile but here are Italy pictures. There are a lot, so it took a few different times of individually loading each one. Take a look at Kelly's blog which is linked at the right for more detailed re-tellings of these events.
Day One:
Charlotte making the pumpkin pie...mm it was so delicious. We ate it for breakfast one day.
The turkey creating quite a spectacle in the fridge.
My lovely accommodation for the holiday. That was my bed in the middle there. It's a mattress called Jaren.
Kelly's desk/my closet.
Neptune in Piazza Maggiore.
Day Two:
The cappuccino I got at such a nice coffee bar. They even made it California style-haha.
On the way to the fresh market.
Meat?
Fruit? Veg?
Fish? (head and tail included)

Day Four:
A church on Via dell' Indipendenza Kelly and I ducked into on our way home.
Stairs made for horses!


Out to dinner for Andrew's birthday. I was so amazed by and absorbed into eating the huge friendship bowl of pasta that was put in front of us, I didn't take a photo of it.
Group picture of some of us after dinner, before the dancing.
Neptune has a cool shadow.
Hanging out in Piazza Maggoire before saying farewell to the guys.
