6/7/11 Traveling on...

Ciao!

Just kidding, we're still in luxembourg practicing our Italian. Tomorrow we leave for our second farm near Pisa, Italy and know much less about our accommodations there than we did at Old Chapel. Since this could potentially be our last free connection for a while, we thought we'd use the opportunity to write even if it's just for you, dear mothers.

Our stay in Luxembourg has been really amazing-a break I'm not sure we knew we needed but are ever grateful for. Today Rick, both our angelic German translator in purchasing extremely complicated rail tickets, (as well as food and wine) and knowledgeable European guide, took us on a day trip to Bern, a beautiful German village in the Moselle valley. It was a spectacular, very non-British day, where enjoyed great views of the vineyards lining the valley and strolled through the classic wine village of Bernkastel. In Luxembourg it's been great to get to spend time with my cousins playing kickball in the back yard and walking to a nearby park and eating delicious dinners outside on my aunt and uncle's patio.Tomorrow we rise before the sun and shoulder our cousin-sized packs once more to catch our first of 13hours of trains, eek! Hopefully we will find ourselves camped out Pisa for the evening before trekking to our farm the next day.

Until then...
