ITALY!

I have never been to a more beautiful place! I loved it so much! It would take too many words to describe all that we did so I will just nutshell it and post pictures. You can imagine for yourselves...

I owe it all to the wonderful families who opened their hearts and homes to these amazing and brave students.

There were about 80 of us CETUSA people and companions.


We landed in Rome and took a bus tour before going to our hotel.



The next 2 days we had on our own in Rome. We walked all over and got lost. I LOVED getting lost. We saw more of the city that way.  We felt so safe there. It was amazing.




We headed south and couldn't stop in Naples like we had planned. There was a protest about the education system. We did stop to see the city from above.




We spent the rest of the day in the ruins of Pompeii.  Words can not describe the feelings there. I was in awe the whole time.



We stayed in Sorrento the next 2 days. One day to see Sorrento and the other a boat trip to the Isle of Capri.  Our room had the most amazing view!



Thank you again to my amazing families, students and schools who made this possible!
