Hello everyone!
Today was a great day. We went and saw Michelangelo's David. I have fortunately been able to see it once before, but it is still breath-taking everytime. It really is one of my favorite pieces.
Other than that, things are pretty status-quo. I might take a trip to Assisi this weekend (Think St. Francis of Assisi--- the saint who talked to animals).
I hope all is well with everyone.
I hear there are problems leaving comments. No worries. If you really want to you can e-mail me at LaCasseA@seattleu.edu and let me know how things are going.
Love you.
Pictures: We went to the Piazza Michelangelo for a dinner picnic overlooking the city.
Also, we went to Sante Croce church where many famous renaissance thinkers and artists are buried. The one pictured above is Niccolo Machievelli who wrote The Prince and is attributed to the creation of the modern governmental state. Even today a lot of his ideals have stuck aroundi n governmental organization. Galilleo is also buried at this church.

Hey Alex,
We are still here keeping track of your journey. Elora would like you to take a picture of a bug and her princess castle. I am just loving these pictures. I have been saving them to my computer and I am going to get a few developed at Walmart. The scenery there is just gorgeous. You have inspired me to get out and see the world. Well at least out of Custer, Washington!
Much love,
Monique
