Only three days until Arrevaderci time!!
By the way, you'll see us use "Arrevaderci" and "Ciao" alot because its the only two words we know with confidence. We thought early on we would learn some of the language then that thing we do in the daytime...ya know, teaching, sort of got in the way of our big ambitions to be multilingual. Like the old college days, we are planning a last minute cram session on the flight there, which is also likely to go south as it contradicts with our plans for in flight sleeping aids and eye masks so we aren't jet lagged. So...thank goodness the Italians are pretty nice to us and have a great grasp of the English language, nor do they become immediately insulted when we murder their beautiful language. If this were a trip to France, I fear we would be in big trouble. We just got confirmation that Hotel Mimosa will be sending a limo to the airport to pick us up when we arrive in Rome. I guess they got word of the two babe-alicious, super-star, art teachers coming from America. Or maybe it was the 45euro deposit we sent for limo pick up...although we like the flaming stars theory much better. Either way, confirming that Fabio will be curbside waving a sign with our names on it, is making us feel like this is really going to happen. STay tuned for the adventure as it unfolds....

Lisa,
Did you see K. Hoffman's column in the Sunday Zest? A reader wrote in with specific directions to the fab pizza place in Rome. If you need it let me know. Arrividerci, baby (sp?)! - Sylvia G.
Man, I need one of those Pope watches! The blog looks great. Looking forward to more entries.
Yay! This is really fun already! I'll be returning back every day.
I'm so excited for you guys I've already polished off a pint of Ben and Jerry's just reading this entry. I'm going to stock up because I know it's only going to get better.
Love and When in Rome -
Lauren
Hi guys and thanks Sylvia. I am going to dig out the zest and see if I can find the article. What are the odds for this article coming out this Sunday? Seems like all the planets are in line for us to have some great pizza.
Ciao!
