That's A Wrap




Indeed, things are wrapping up fast. Finals start tomorrow. People are already packing. Our plane leaves early Wednesday morning. How is this possible???

Our final Gala took place last night on the rooftop of the beautiful, 4-star Grand Hotel Baglioni. Everyone dressed up and snapped pictures as twilight fell over the city. The view was incredible – you could see for miles, and we were so close one felt they could almost reach out and touch the Duomo. Dinner, speeches, and awards followed; we laughed a lot, cried a little, and toasted one incredible year.

Today we hiked to the top of the Duomo and took even MORE pictures of the surrounding city. We climbed over 400 spiraling stairs and finally emerged into the sun, dizzy and panting, hundreds of feet in the air…

The weather has been amazing and I’ve been putting on the pounds thanks to even more delicious food than usual.

Happy April Fool’s Day everyone! Go out and prank your friends…I definitely did…

Love to all!
