My Hotels Villa Ducale Parma

... that I understand. My Italian recgonition has improved slightly this weekend, which gives me an edge they do not have. Its like peices of a puzzel, and they are missing the picture to match to another peice, that important piece that links the different sections together. Where I can just try and find one. it is always out of their grasp..... But alas, I did sit, a lot, and made attempts to smile when people gave me little looks of 'aw pity she doesn ...

... really tutoring, but mostly I would just read them English books so they could hear the correct pronunciation. Not bad. They put out a plate of more sweets and seemed offended I wasn't shoveling them in my face even though fat Allison would have loved to do it. As the conversation died down I mentioned how cool it was that they lived in a castle, and the dad lit up, and took me on a tour. We went in every single room, on every single floor ...

... reggiano. I found a brochure for a place that was too far for us to reach unless we had a car so I asked if there was anything closer to town or in the town itself. We were sent a block and a half over to this place that would have been impossible to find. We walked in and there was no one around. Then we heard footsteps coming down the stairs and the guy who ran the place appeared. I asked him if now ...

Today we ventured into Parma we had better luck parking today. It had to be the nicest parking garage ever. Each spot had either a green/unoccupied or red/occupied light right above it and there was music playing over the loud speaker very cool! We had a lunch of tomato and basil pasta with a dessert plate of the meats of Parma. We walked around Parma saw a ...

We left Indy on time and made our connection in Detroit with just a few minutes to spare. Once on the plane in Detroit we were ready to taxi down the runway when an announcement came on looking for a doctor on board. We then got word that we were going back to the terminal where paramedics would be boarding the plane. Once we were at the terminal the ...

For a nice little day trip, Zoe and I decided to go to one of the main cities in Emilia-Romagna (the province where our father hails from): Parma.<br><br>The city is reknowned for parmesan cheese and Parma ham, or as we call it, prosciutto.<br><br>If you like quaint churches and little shops, this place is great to visit!<br>

... impressive. After a look round Ants and I drove further down the coast and found a great free camp spot right on the sea shore in Pioppi. The next day was a slow one, lazy day at the beach. We managed to score free internet at the local museum before moving down the coast to a campsite just outside of Sapri then met up with Zeke, Jen, Leila and Bambam the next day. We decided to head into the National Park area Vallo de Diano to check out the canyoning but missed out as ...

... your hair. If that is luck, then what constitutes bad luck? Elephant poo? A bum peeing on you? (I saw it almost happen in Columbus, but that is Ohio, you know how they are there) I did have to keep these opinions to myself, as we didn't have time for Justina to run back home before class, and friends don't remind friends of their poo hair. We finished class, and Bridget and I did some last shopping and then headed back to the apartment. Jen had a ...

June 10, 2002<br><br>Back on the bus! This time to Italy!! We went to Pisa (and had pizza for lunch!) We saw the tower, of course, and the church. Got to shop in the souvenir shops and sit for awhile in the sun. Very peaceful day. I can tell I'm getting tired, because the travel journal entries are shorter and shorter!<br> <br><br><br><br>We were in ...
