So here I am in Sorrento...with an AMAZAING view of Mount Vesuvius from my Hostel! Im here with 9 other friends and we are having an awesome time! A little break from classes, about 5 hours by train south of Montepulciano. Its absolutely beautiful here and I could never hope for anythign more! Everything I see here in this country just makes me want to stay even longer. 2 weeks down, 3 to go...and unfortunately those will go by REALLY fast. We are planning on CinqueTerra next weekend and Venice the next.
Yesterday we went to this lemon grove where they grow lemons, limes and oranges and this lady makes her own lemoncello so we got to sample it! Mmmm....strong but good! we also toured Pompeii yesterday and walked around Sorrento. Tomorrow we go home to Montepulciano...I have a midterm test on Monday which I am NOT looking forward to...classes get in the way of Study Abroad...haha...
Life is good, I couldnt be any happier. I have made amazing lifetime friends! And for those of you who know me, yesterday was my two week trip marker and I am already at 1390 photos. Its going to be SOOO hard to go through them all and pick out which ones I want to print. Dang it, why cant I just print them all! Haha...like I said though, Ive made lots of friends and there is so much to photograph here...so many memories! I am SO blessed to be able to come on a trip like this. So far, God has really proven how good He is, cause so much could have gone wrong that hasnt. Speaking of...Thursday we were in Rome at the Colosseum and it hit me that I was standing right where Paul would have stood back in Bible days as they were persecuting the Christians. It was pretty emotional. Just made me step back and think about things. Like I said, it's been an amazing trip and I dont think anything could ever top this!
Buona Notte (Good Night) for now, I dont know when I will be on again. There is just too much to do to sit on a computer.
