... haut, on avait une tres belle vue sur toute la ville! Ensuite ca ete la visite de quelque eglises, puis le theatre romain de l'autre cote de la riviere. finalement, on a vue un tres beau pont attacher a un chateau en bordure de la riviere.

nous avons eu le temps de prendre quelques coupes de vin local, accompagne d'excellent bruchetta avant de prendre le train pour milan.

... l'universite qui ressemble plus a un musee
d'histoire qu'a une ecole! A l'exterieur, des etudiants se faisaient
initier a la bonne vieille methode : des oeufs, de l'eau et de la

eglise, dont une basilic qui etait vraiment drabe vue de l'exterieur,
mais l'interieur de la chapelle etait comme une fresque geante. En
fin de journee, nous avons pris le train pour revenir a venise

So we left the place of love behind and drove on up into Germany...

... growing in my body.  It reaches a point where there are days I can hardly believe that it happened to ME.  Sobering articles like the one in Monday's Tribune make me realize how tenuous it all is.  The anxiety comes from the thought that I only have so much lung tissue and if it reappears in another lobe how many lobes can I have removed before ..........  For those of you who have never experienced a foreign object growing inside your body, an ...

... through orange muck), us dancing to the music, or deciding to squeeze orange guts all over each other as we attacked one another. But they announced in Italian over the loudspeaker that there were six Americans in the middle of the second piazza we went into.

Had my first major homesick night that night. I think because in Perth you build venice up to be this beautiful romantic, historical place and I finally got to go there and wasnt able to share it with my close friends and family!
