Here in Mantova, Italy

I am in Italy!!!! I don't have much time to write but I wanted to let you know that I'm here! It's so beautiful!! Traveling is always an adventure! My flights were fine and my train from Zurich, Switzerland to Verona, Italy was stunning (we went right through the Alps!), I'm very, very tired though - jet lag is kicking my butt not to mention the extra hours I stayed up yesterday (I didn't go to bed until 4 am local time last night because I was waiting for Jennie's train to get in and then we drove (with Jennie's friend, Camilla) back to Camilla's home in Mantova.) But, now we're here - It's so great to see Jennie...I can't wait to hear more about her last two weeks...and Camilla and her family are so wonderful - and we're just chilling out today. I think we'll go to Lake Garda (big European tourist locale) tomorrow and then sometime Sunday we'll head out to the Cinque Terre. I'll try to write again if I get a chance....and, don't worry....I'm taking lots of pictures! Ciao!!
