so I don't have internet....but I'm in Italy!

ok so maybe it has been forever since I have blogged. sorry. I guess that last three weeks have been a little busy.....

well let's see, I made it to Italy! It was a long trip here, we had a delay in Munich and spent the day in the Munich airport. But we made it Naples and started off with some pizza of course. We got all moved in to our temporary apartment. It's temporary, but we love it and it's home. We share a family "courtyard" with an amazing family. They cook us food all the time and it's amazing. Last night I ate the best pizza I have ever tasted and it came from them. One night soon they are gonna teach us how to make it. What else.... they don't speak English, but they do speak a lot of fast Italian and occasionally some Napoletana. When we hang our clothes out to dry, they fix them because we do it the wrong way. :) We must be family! I'm so grateful for them and everything that they do for us. But like I said, this place won't be the whole two years.

When I got here almost our whole team came down with swine flu. Luckily I already had my dealings with swine flu in Brazil and didn't go through it again here. But it really knocked our team out. So the first week here was a little slow because of the sicknesses... but now things are moving along. I started language school last Thursday. I like language school, but I need more time to study. Or maybe I just need to study more.

The team is great! and they're gonna read this so I'll say it again... the team is great! haha. They let us bum their internet all the time. But obviously I am not always productive on the internet since this is the first blog I have written in Naples. :) Anyway there are a few pictures.... the courtyard and the city. It's big by the way. I love Naples. I don't like walking in the rain, and I have gotten over my issues with my shower yet. I'm praying about it. It's a little cold, sometimes. ok that's enough for now.

Pray for language learning, I need it.

Pray for our team retreat this weekend.

Pray for Peppe and Assunta, that we can continue to have good time with them.

bye for now!!!
