Sono Arrivato

I have arrived!! My flight and everything went very smoothly. Lunch in the first class lounge was crab and lobster ravioli. Plus I ate lots of cheese and fruit. The highlight of the flight was definitely hearing the flight attendant announce, "tonight's in-flight film will be Balls of Fury." I slept almost the entire flight. I had a whole row of seats to myself so it was pretty comfortable. Just before landing, we had a great view of the Alps. Una bella vista, as usual. No lost luggage, thank god. I was a little nervous considering I was landing in Milan... the so called black hole of lost luggage. Still, my suitcase unfortunately didn't make it through it's virgin voyage unharmed. But the damage is minimal. Interesting topic isn't it? Anyway Chiara and Nicola were waiting for me at the airport. Nicola drove back to their house, like a mad man, which is where I am now. He set up his GSP so that it gives the directions in a Sicilian dialect. Hilarious. Upon arrival I ate a little tiramisu, had some espresso, and now relaxing. No pictures yet but soon :)

First Post

Hello readers!!!! So this is my idea about ensuring communication between my family and friends and also for keeping a record off all the stuff I am doing while in Europe. So save this link! I plan on uploading photos to the site so everyone can view them and I don't have to deal with email photos to people... something that for some reason  I am incapable of doing. Anyway this is just a test/initial post but I think the idea will be successful. If I am not on top of writing new stuff or putting up pictures just harass me and I'll do it.  :)
