Gia's Favorite Things About Italy (to be updated as we go...)

This is my map of Italy where we are going.

Gia's thoughts on the trip so far:
I took a pill so I didn’t get sick on the car ride to Pompeii.  It was interesting that it was buried in the ashes.

I like that I am staying with my whole family in Italy and I loe the way I’m doing it.  We stayed in a white house with a pool that was perfect the way it was and it had a secret hideout.

We brought our pets Arctic and Toto.

I’m happy that we have swimmed in the pool and the sea.  I especially loved the beach with the restaurant.  We were all together as a family.  I love my mom and dad and brother and sister.  I love the way they take me to school and I love my friends.  And I love the way I went to Australia and played with my friend Daisy Harry Potter.  I love everything that’s special to me.  Even my toys on my bed waiting for me.  And I love Arctic and Toto and everything we do together. 

Italian food is great.  I love the food that they make in Italy.  When we go out to eat, I like spaghetti (bianco) with olive oil and parmesan.  I love the eggs, and bread.  I also thank you for the goodest time with my family, and I like it that way.

I liked the water fountain today that daddy took me out on to wash my hands.

We sat to sketch the coliseum.  Gia announced, "Mom, I can't draw thaaat! [as she jabbed her thumb in the that direction]  So I just drew Jesus on the cross."
