Leaving Italy

---

Bonjour!

We just got to France about 2 hours ago! I can't believe time is flying...only two more days! We spent the last two days in Florence doing some sightseeing and lots of shopping. (All of you back home should be expecting gifts!) This morning we got up early and visited Pisa and the leaning tower. Of course we spent more than 20 minutes posing with the tower and then got to visit the baptistry. The acoustics inside were so incredible...a lady came in and gave us a presentation by singing. We were all stunned in amazement. We got back on the bus for an hour or so and then we hopped off to take a train over to the town of Cinque Terre. There were great hiking trails which most of us started but only a few went the whole way. The sights were beyond words. In fact, the entire trip from Italy to France was beyond words. It was just awesome. Tonight we ate Cordon Blue for dinner and everyone is doing great. A few have mentioned they were homesick...so I know everyone is ready for their favorite meal (hint, hint)!
