From my journal: So I didn't have time to write the last two days, so here is a short recap. It is day three in Rome right now. I managed to get to the airport with no problems (hooray!) even though my flight was slightly delayed, we still managed to get to Rome only 10 min behind schedule. I ended up sitting in front of some really loud and obnixous brits on the flight (and I thought Americans could be bad....) but met some guy from Chicago who was friendly. We...

Hey everyone! I just got back from my fall break in Italy. Before I start talking about that...I just wanted to update you from back when I came back from Paris.

I am going to split up the blogs because they will be so long. Over all Paris was amazing and I had such a good time! It is a beautiful city that you just can't help but fall in love with.
