Here are some pictures for you. Today we went to the National Archaeology Museum in Naples which was great, but the room full of mosaics and naughty imagery from Pompeii was closed for restoration work. HUGE BUMMER! So today you will get some pictures of us being cute and adventurous. I'll write more about Rome later, but not today. It is late, Aaron was being a computer hog, but he put some great stuff online so be sure to check out his pictures too!
Another nice picture, but not as great. This one is from Hadrian's Villa where the Emporer put things he saw around the empire in miniature. It was a crazy place to get to because the bus doesn't stop we got on in Roma doesn't stop there so we had to guess where to get off, which was luckily correct, and transfer busses, then figure out how to get back. It was kind of crazy, but we did it. It was also a beautiful day.

The first picture is a good one. Why isn't that clown smiling with his teeth? Tell him to smile like a real man.
That last picture made me LOL.
Rachael,
We're enjoying your commentary so much. The difference in the way you guys look at things is great. The pictures, both here and in the album, are wonderful.
You mentioned the fruit and not being able to eat it but said nothing about Aaron sampling it. Does that mean he's not eating his daily servings of fruit?!
Karen
You two are so cute...OK...OK... Maybe just you, though AKP is looking mighty snazzy in that doorway.
PS- You are in Napoli, home of lemons. Get your daily serving of fruit in one of my favorite ways, through limoncello.
Hi Rachael and Aaron!
Aunt Claire here with much enthusiasm for your adventurous travels and generous blogs! Upon reading them however I have experience a massive centrifugal force to return to Italy!! Last spring our very first visit to Europe. and Italy only. The experience is truly life altering. And to try to tell everyone is so hard and time consuming! Great job. I use the analogy: How do you describe the Vatican to someone? It would be similar to giving someone and apple and let them eat it, they have no taste buds however and you describe your eating an apple to them---ooh you get the picture! What has been your favorite food so far?
Kristina is living on a kibbutz in Israel doing research for a university and doing local travel too. I will pass on your blog to her.
OK Caio bella!!
