It sounds like Rome as been quite an adventure. All that art and history. Amazing. Soooo ... you throw some coins into the Trevi Fountain and come home to find Eric the Salvadoreño in your room? Coincidence? Have a good time in Venice. Be sure to wave to the blind people for me :)
Also, I just found your Paris blog entry last night from the main page. Did you write that one while you were in Paris or did you add it later? I didn't see it before and was wondering if I was just not paying attention.

Ciao Bella,
Glad you got to Rome and saw all the sites (sorry it rained). It brought back so many memories as you talked about everything you had seen and experienced ( I didn't ever share a room with a guy though). Hope you have a safe journey to Venice and the weather improves. It is gloomy and rainy here today.
We miss you but are glad you are having this great adventure
love Mum

Sounds like you guys are having a great time. Love being able to keep tabs on you! ha ha.
Love Nancy

Off to Rome? Glad you got to see and do everything you hoped to do in Florence, and that you are leaving "Guido", too. Take care, be safe. We're loving your blog--it has been a most excellent adventure.
Love, Mom
Mum
Bongiorno,
I wanted to let you know that all your talk of Italy and food inspired my menu for the book club luncheon tomorrow. I am doing zuppa toscana and salad and tortoni and biscotti. I just finished baking and am now off to bed. Enjoy your day,
love Mum

I love reading about all your fun adventures, Eden and Heather! You should chat with Angela when you get home - she traveled all over Europe after going to the University of Padua in Italy this year and last. I'm sure you'll have interesting stories and experiences to gab over.
Be safe and enjoy the moment!
Love,
Megan
P.S. I like how the post makes me do math before I can add my message. It's almost like I'm working in an elementary school with bilingual kids.... oh wait! I'm already doing that! :)

Ciao guys! Ok, so maybe I am not there with you but I can pretend to be!! (Knowing me, I don't even have it spelled right!) I am enjoying your blogs so much - I jump on my computer (not literally of course) the minute it gets around 4 or 5 here to see if there is a new episode in the lives of Eden and Heather. I must add my skepticism that Eden is not in love with Edward Cullen. How could you not be??? A friend at church (after she read the first book) told her husband that she wished he was a vampire. Anyway, keep the comments coming. After I read your blog, I look everything up on Wikipedia so I can visualize pictures of where you are and what you are seeing and doing. It is so exciting. It is fun but slightly disappointing to vicariously live through others. Honestly, I just wish I was there myself but I am so glad you guys are doing it. It is something that you will never forget and NEVER regret. Be careful of any suave Italian man on a Gondola (I know you have plans to visit Venice soon!) - and especially one that is singing! When are the pictures coming?!

Not in love with Edward Cullen yet Eden!? How is that possible? I'm in love with Edward Cullen and I'm a guy. How can you not love a guy who saves a girl from crashing cars and big bad werewolves? And the teeth! The teeth are oh so sexy. With attributes like that, I wouldn't have had to work so hard to trick Aenea into marrying me. :-) Ok, I really have no idea what I'm talking about with Edward Cullen, but I've heard the stories.......you know.......with Aenea being in love with him and all.
Be careful with the overly friendly hostel employee. Those Italian guys are pretty smooth. You might come home, Mrs. Eden or Mrs. Heather Giovanni (or fill in your own Italian name).
HELLO- Have you guys bought souvenirs? And by that I mean, have you bought me anything? And by that I mean, I would love some chocolate. Or something that looks really cool that I could put on display in my house and brag about. You do remember that my birthday is next month right? Sounds like you are having a lot of fun eating that gelato. I don't blame you. I am excited for you to get home so we can see pictures and you can call me and tell me everything. And hopefully you bring home Mossimo. I guess you still have awhile longer in Italy to find him. So did Eden buy New Moon? Because that one would be pretty fitting to read in Italy...I'm just saying. I don't believe that she isn't in love with Edward Cullen. I like to call that "denial" Eden. I'll talk to you soon!

I do not understand Eden not being in love with Edward. How can you not love Edward?! Oh well, maybe Jacob is more her type I can't wait to see the picture of Eden and David's rear, you naughty girl. I agree with Mum, you don't need to worry about weight gain when you are walking everywhere and climbing a million steps. Enjoy every bite completely.
Aenea
Eden,
Your travels sound almost like a movie adventure. You must be having the time of your life! All your talk of food is making me salivate. I really enjoy hearing all of your adventures, so keep on blogging.
P.S. Don't worry that you're not in love with Edward Cullen yet. You definitely will be by the end of Eclipse! :)
