Roma

For anyone waiting to hear, Amy and I made it safely to Europe. We said our goodbyes at a very fun going away party the Sunday before, and then Tuesday our parents took us to the airport in Spokane. After about 30 hours of travel we arrived at our B&B in London. It was a very cute farmhouse from the 1700s with two horses and lots of chickens. We went for a short walk through the countryside, but quickly got tired and went for dinner at the pub next door to the B&B. We left on thursday early to go to the airport to fly to rome, so we missed out on breakfast, but the French chickens laid very beautiful red speckled eggs that our host showed us. We got to rome and made it to our apartment. Our landlord was a cute italian lady that spoke a little bit of english and she showed us all around our tiny apartment, including the kitchen (which is in a closet!) This is our second day in Rome, so far we have gone to some of the main attractions like the vatican, spanish steps, and the pantheon. And we've had gelato twice, and I'm sure that won't be the last time! And of course amy has started shopping. Tomorrow we're going to the beach...

good job on keeping the cupcake frosted with sunscreen. I hear you are also keeping her on the caffeine, which is safest for all!
ciao bellas!
