I'm in Italy!!!

Can you believe it?? I am in Italy! I am on the island of Sicily. Look on a map--Sicily is the island off of the "toe of the boot" of Italy.

Tomorrow I go to Pompeii--the place that made me fall in love with history when I was in 6th grade! I can't believe I will be there in about 12 hours! I even have a private scholar!

Tomorrow is also my last day on the ship. I will be spending the following three days in Rome. I will go to the Pantheon, the Colosseum, and even the Vatican where I will get to see the Sistene Chapel painted by Michelangelo!! I don't know if I will have computer access. If not, I will be home on Monday and will see you Tuesday! Hasn't this been the best adventure ever??!! I am so excited to see where you are choosing to go on YOUR Mediterranean journey:)
See you SOON!!! Ciao'!
