Staying with the family was a fantastic experience, and we'll definitely return. Everyone wants us to come back and stay for the whole summer...which we'll be amazing if we could. We're going to try to learn more Italian before we return, since only a few of the relatives speak English. I can't wait to go back!

Pendant le après-midi, Maria et moi sommes allées à vélo à la magasine de sa père pour faire des achats. Maria est allée partout et a ...

Alors, je pense que j'ai eu assez voyage pour pas mal des temps. Le vol de Toronto à Paris était très longue. Et je n'ai pas dormi du tout. Les Français sans aucun doute n'ont pas donné une première impression bonne. Ils étaient vraiment impoli et nous étions contents de partir la France. Le vol de Paris et Rome était très beau. J'aurais dormi mais je n'aurais pas arreté de regarder ...

... the job of getting the croissants for breakfast, so the next morning we walked through the village to the boulangerie (baker) and picked it up. We had a slow breakfast enjoying the view over the mountains and then Anne Marie took us for a walk into the Bois Noir (Black Woods/Forest), just behind the town.

... in Turin with his wife Luisella so we had decided to stop off there on our way to Austria for snowboarding, however we had not actually managed to make contact with Gigi as my mum was having trouble tracking down his contact details. We didn't really mind though and were determined to have a great Christmas on our own in Italy anyway.
