Well, we're finally here: Rome, Italy. After delayed flights, speeding through airports and some terrible jet lag, it's almost time for me to finally eat dinner, get gelato then go to sleep! I'm not one for heights but when I fly I realize what an incredible place God has made for us to live in. When landing in Philadelphia I had to snap a picture of the city of brotherly love in the sunset as I said my farewells for over three months. (I didn't even have time to get one last federal donut!) Then after the sun rose and we flew through Europe I quickly snapped another picture of some snow capped mountains as we casually flew over them.
I didn't have many opportunities to pull out my camera today and take good shots but I did get a few from the garden around the place we're staying, which just so happens to be a convent...I think. Nuns live here that's all I know right now. Someone needs to keep me in check over here in Europe! Well after long and stressful flights, a valiant battle with jet lag, accidentally getting a shower in the girls' shower, and trying to retain the large amounts of information thrown at me today, it is finally almost time to eat some dinner, get gelato, and then go to sleep! So to my friends in Pennsylvania (and the rest of the US), enjoy the rest of your Thursday, and to my fellow Romans, goodnight!
