So cool!
Finally got to read this! So very cool, enjoyed each of the pictures and loved the stories you had, especially about the walk. I love hearing about the people you met, and the way you described the 16 year old. I'm sure you have sooooo many more stories! The Dali museum looked awesome, I will have to make it there some day along with Van Gogh ;) Miss you both! And now Italy, wow!
