Hannah on our way back to the bus area after a day walking in Florence.. Quite the poser
We saw, what looked like a huge rat, on the River Arno, from the Ponte Vechio. It is something called a Nutria,the second largest rodent in the world,that escaped when the zoo flooded in 1966, and breeds along the river now.. Just gross! Swam like a fish, we googled it when we got home
This is also on the Ponte Vechio. Apparantly folklore says that if lovers put a padlock on the bridge somewhere, they will stay together.. Its now forbidden to put any there, but the local government leaves some there

Stunning photo's Ruth, I love the one of Hannah 'posing', she looks gorgeous. Congrats on the award, you must be feeling pretty proud.
You guys are looking very much at home in Italy. One of my favourite places in the world. It will be very sad for you to say goodbye.
Just home from orientation day...hot as hell, humid beyond belief. Kids were dying in their ties, thank God only hour and a half...
Camp is 04-06Feb, so just as you get back. Kahn on track to try and sort cabin out for our boy.
Glad to see Hannah feeling better. Thanks for sharing all these memories with us, it's been fantastic.
Ciao

Ditto the sentiments above (except about the school and heat etc of course!) It is mild here 7 degrees and rainy, but just when you relax the cold snaps come back to keep you on your toes! Rosalie, Lotti and Louie have been in the garden for a run round. Everyone sends their best. Some of my favorite pics are the funny ones. I like Mark's black scarf and all of you looking a little more European, chic and relaxed. The Italians live and breath that don't they- I remember in Firenze even the scaffolding poles were black with brass fittings.. Favorite pic- the Sistine Chapel my Arse! (How irreverant!) I've been looking for a salient moment to use the phrase 'Good point, well made Jimbo!' since christmas day! Also hooray the lens turned up! Royal Mail said 3-5 days so it must have gone on holiday as well. If you go into the Pisa baptistry please snap the Islamic pattern pavement for me. Love you know who xxx
