After seeing six comments on the post two days ago, I feel bad not posting again.
Today we went to capri. I think I could easily say it is the most beautiful place I've ever been in my entire life. It is an island off the coast of Italy, and is just breathtaking. We got there at 11 am (about 15 of us went over), and took a bus to the 'centro' markets in the middle of the island. We then took a convertible taxi back down to the marina, which was crazy. We rented these two boats to take us all around the island. The boats had beds covered in beach towels, so we could lay on the boat as it took us around for two hours. We swam in a grotto (cave) and Brian took pictures with his underwater camera. I'm loving this weekend trip, but am definitely worn out.
The island of Capri was gorgeous. Everything was really expensive, so we didn't eat there or anything. We're back in Sorrento now, resting and showering before dinner. The Italian soccer league championship is tonight, and Roma is in the game! We're hoping to find a restaurant where we can watch, but we'll see. Everything is expensive here. I can't imagine how much money I would be spending if I drank with everyone else. I'm glad I don't, I can experience more that way (and remember it!!!) We met a few people from Ohio today, which is always fun. I hope I can post pictures tomorrow back in Rome, I have some crazy ones, and a video of me on the scooter. Madness. I'm being just as safe as the Italians mom. Gramma's Martie and Rose, I'm taking in the sights and taking pictures to tell you all about it when I get back. Grandpa Bob, I'll never forget some of the sights and smells... Never. Trey, if you listen hard enough, I'm yelling from across the Mediteranean, Atlantic, East Coast, and Midwest at you. Stop committing so many errors. You know you miss my aggressive base running. I'd say something here to Andy, but he is clearly too busy in Florida to take a second for a break :)
More on the trip as soon as I can!

It is officially me and you entire family leaving comments on your blogs... Do you have other friends?
I dedicated the making of a big muddy to you today (those are our blizzards). I didn't do it out loud or anything, but I hope you felt honored.
You went all the way to Italy and decided to play slots at the isle of capri?? If you want to go to a casino we have that right here in mid-missouri.
