Days 5, 6 and 7

Sorry we have not been able to write sooner, but we have been exhausted after 12 hours of walking (and some times stair climbing) everyday. Here are some of the pictures from the last 3 days in Florence. As you can see, Ruth has been praying so much; she’s already growing wings! You can also see her buying Daniela a purse at Lorenzo’s Market. We ate at Za-Za Trattoria today. This restaurant was recommended by Silvia, Marylou’s friend. Thanks Silvia! According to George, this is the best food he has had in Italy so far. You can see how much he liked it! He is even eating TOMATOES!!! Tonight, we are getting ready for our day trip to the Tuscan countryside. We bought bread, cheese, ham, and wine for our picnic on our way to the small Tuscan towns and Pisa (if we make it that far). Mario is our designated driver and GPS. We’ll be writing soon.

Love,

The Fortes, the Chavez and the Torres

Never mind i see the other pictures. They are really cool! My art teacher picked two kids out of 5th grade to do Origami center pieces for a business called Arts Alive. She picked me and this boy in my class named Joshua. Now I am staying after school on Fridays to make them and when we finish we get a surprise.
