Regina Hey Jan- Glad to hear you are learning new things everyday and having fun too. Like your Dad, things are very different outside of the States, so go with the flow, have fun and share your funny stories with us. Amanda says she loves you and prays for you to come visit her soon. Take lots of pictures in Italy. It's once in a lifetime experience. Love you, Regina

Dad Jannie, you are a sillie American! What were you thiking? You are in Europe, wake up and smell the latte. :) Remember, that in Europe, your customer rights as you know them here in the states do NOT apply. Also, I'm sure you have notice by now that the serving sizes of your meals are nowhere near what you are used too either. Continue to enjoy yourself! I look forward to hearing more about your silly advendtures. Love, Dad
