Europe, again

So the last place we went in Italy was La Spezia.  I think I had the best time there because we HAD more time, and we went to the beach a couple times.  We also went to church there.  We left to find it an hour early, and still only made it five minutes late, and that was after a VERY nice person led us there.  We knew we would be looking for a building that didn’t look like a church, but we still had a bit of a time until we saw someone riding a scooter in a white shirt and tie and we followed him.  :)  They were very nice but it was hot as they didn’t air condition the building.

Italy is just a really cool-looking place all around anyway.  I love all the bright yellow and orange houses and buildings.

  Beach pictures (careful, try not to look too hard- people don’t find always find swimwear necessary).  It was Brett’s first time in the ocean.  It was salty.  I know that everyone says the ocean is salty, but they’re not kidding! 

   Brett and I like to smooch in the ocean in Italy in the sunset.  (But we like to smooch most anywhere, so…) Talmage LOVED the water. See?  Pure excitement.  :) Blake loves Julia.  Awww. Brett is hot- I won’t deny it. See those rocks in the background?  I swam out to them.  It was cool.  I wished that I could take a picture of the beach from there, but I couldn’t really figure out a way to strap my camera on to the top of my head while I swam out.  Nobody was willing to swim with me.  I missed my siblings. Eating dinner.  I like American pizza much better than the pizza we had there.  This is what a lot of our trip looked like.  Hot, sweaty, tired kids.  Good times.
