23:41 CEST, 5:41 PM EST - Ho-k, so, I really don't have time to do a real post, but I'll give you a quick update and a movie that you might like. We saw a chapel last night (amazing) and went to the Basilica today. We have an amazing art history teacher that knows everything and she is awesome to have as a guide! But I have a test tomorrow and I have been screwing around all day so I need to be on my way, but here is a movie that we took yesterday from the window of our classroom. Hope you enjoy.

Realmente permette che noi visualizziamo dove siete e vediamo la bellezza dell'Italia. Saremo ansiosi sentirsi quanto duro deve imparare in italiano quando i vostri codici categoria italiani reali cominciano in alcune settimane. Studio duro - e naturalmente, continui ad avere divertimento. Il vostro tempo in Italia andrà così velocemente. Dica prego a Christina ch'abbiamo detto ciao e diale un hug per noi. Ed ora lascerò tutto in un segreto di divertimento - no, non ho preso un corso di arresto in italiano, ma piuttosto ho usato il seguente Web site per tradurre le mie parole in italiano. Controllilo fuori!! È impressionante. Arrivederci per ora, Amore, Dad

First, let me say how much we have truly enjoyed reading your blog. You have done a great job in keeping us updated. We all enjoy reading about your adventures and seeing the pictures that you have posted.
It does not appear that you are too homesick after reading about your many girl friends, fancy restaurants, discos and gelatos everywhere. I particularly enjoyed reading about the creative investment you made in the purchase of a bike.
The pictures you have provided are wonderful, so keep adding more pictures. They really allow us to visualize where you are and see the beauty of Italy.
We will be anxious to hear how difficult the Italian language is once your real Italian classes begin.
Study hard, and of course have fun. Your time in Italy will go so fast.
Please tell Christina we said Hi and give her a hug for us.

Haha thanks pops. I think it's a good idea to stay with English. I'll teach you some Italiano over Christmas, deal?
you missed a pretty darn good separation saturday, Steve. your boys as well as mine played good-I give credit to michigan, although brady quinn played horrible to your advantage. the tigers won, but so did the twins, so it's still 2 games. Plus, now iTunes is releasing movies and iPod games (tetris) on the music store. I'm thinking about buying remember the titans, and/or toy story. So, that's what's happening here!

Steve,
Well, I haven't had a chance to read your blog recently so I had some catching up to do. I am loving your comments. Especially the ones where you are all over the place like a stream of conciousness {ie Thoughts on Provado}. It makes me feel as if you are really giving us a true account of your everyday life. Keep it up.
Now about your bike. I am not here to lecture you on purchasing previously stolen merchandise, however, perhaps you should consider not locking it up. This way, that the next time a world traveller is in need he or she may be able to find your shady friends and purchase a mode of transportation also. Circle of life and all that. Just a thought.
Now, I have to tell you I was impressed with you knowing it was me yesterday at Grandma's even that late at night and toasted and all. Nice. By the way, you made Grandpa's day by calling him. He watched or listened to the game all day since you could not be here and was intent on really figuring out everything that was going on. Not bad for a blind guy who is hard of hearing and hates all sports. Unfortunately, I was there with him and assisting him in this process, and had to endure the pain of their stellar win. Even more painful since we are to play Notre Dame next week and now they will have to prove themselves more.
Speaking of Gramps, I just have to say that I am very happy that you chose to follow in his footsteps by attending his alma mater. I know I give you crap all the time {and will continue to do so} but I am proud and know that it honors him more than he will admit. I still, however, think that saying "Hail" in a fight song is blasphemous {sp?}, and just plain stupid.
Okay, that's all for now. We all miss and love you,
Ciao, Aunt chris
ps John if you read this, nice posting and website info.
I hope Aunt Chris gets used to getting excited about Michigan Football victories, because there are many more where that came from...GO BLUE! Anyway, I agree that you're doing a great job keeping up with the blog. Good work.
