Differences Between Italy and the U.S.A
Italy has been amazing. The history and sites are around every corner. We have enjoyed every moment except for the aching feet. Our room is especially amusing when we measured it to be 6.5 feet X 8.0 feet. I have noticed a few differences between Italy and the U.S., among them include:
1) Mini Coopers are not so mini in size compared to other vehicles. (We call them Averages instead of Mini's)
2) It is considered romantic in Italy to dine by candlelite on a card table in an alley full of trash bags. U.S. not so much!
3) It is perfectly acceptable to have ice cream every night, even twice a day as long as you call it Gelato.
4) Eating pizza and pasta every meal, every day is the only option.

According to numbers 3 and 4 I'm heading to Italy for my next oversees trip! Thanks for entertaining me at work. :) I agree with the comment on how confusing trains are in Europe. I'm sure you'll be experts very soon. Keep having fun!

I love it that you are calling the Mini Coopers, Averages. I am sitting here at work wishing I could be with both of you in Italy eating gelato.
Your train experience reminded us of our trip to Washington D.C. Glad you found each other. Should we send walkie-talkies? Don't lose each other.
Love you,
Mom & Dad M
