Autumn in Italy

Update: We are still here in Perugia! New plan: return late February. There are still adventures to be had here in (often) sunny, (formerly) warm Italy!


We happened upon the welcome ceremony for the new archbishop of Perugia.








That's him in the purple.

Farming every possible square inch, even in the center of town.



St Peter's church in Perugia





It has a beautiful garden beside it.



The Griffin- the symbol of Perugia. Here's a particularly cool one.



Playdate with friend Gabriel.



On the train to Rome. While Erik was in New York, again, F, L, and N went down to Rome.



The Roman Forum from above.



The new wax Obama at the museum in Rome



PIZZA!....Breakfast, lunch and dinner....



Felix attracts a crowd doing yoga for euros on the sidewalk in Rome. He had had it with shopping with Nina and Lulu and decided to see if he could get people passing to put money on his bag by doing yoga...well, it worked.



On the Spanish steps





Lulu before: (she takes 6 sugars in her espresso, thank you.)



Lulu after:



Felix before eating his cena (dinner):

Halloween...not real big here in Perugia, but we did go to a party and had a fun time.
Some friends came over to carve pumpkins.





School pickup is mayhem in Italy too.



Skypeing Grandpa Bob in Michigan (or Skyping, which one is it since it's now a verb?)



C'e vidiamo!
