Days 11 and 12: Pisa, Florence and Rome
... so we stayed in while Tom and Mom went to the Uffizi and Dad went to a market. We all went out to a dinner that was FANTASTIC, and possibly had too much wine. Afterward, Tom bought some Absinthe for a party back at our place, and we all drank and played music and sang and had so much fun! We laughed a whole lot!

Am I lucky or What?
... We headed over to St. Peter's Square later in the afternoon, after a trip to my favorite pizzeria near Largo Argentina. I hadn't been inside the Vatican yet, so I was glad to have an excuse to get over there. By now I am used to amazing churches, but the Vatican is different.
