June 11, 2007
Well, I have arrived! The trip went quite smoothly, although I must admit that I was a bit nervous getting off of the plane in Nice, France, knowing that I was on my own to figure out how to get to Sanremo (which is about 30-45 miles east). However, I managed to procure a bus ticket to the train station, and then a train ticket. The biggest problem was trying to figure out which platform to stand on and then which train to get on....they are not well marked. Luckily, some other teachers with the organization that I am working for, also happened to be at the train station and asked if I was trying to get to Sanremo....I think that they must have recognized me by my confused and bedraggled look. After that, everything went quite smoothly and these people have become my dearest friends in Italy :-)

You paint a great picture for those of us wishing to be in Italy with you. I can't wait to see your pics. The cobble stones, tiny alleys and fresh laudry all play into my previouly held perception of Italy.
Also, to keep you updated, the school called Holly today (tuesday) a week and half after her interview only to tell her that they were having some kind of problem at the district level and won't know until friday or monday who they've decided on. Talk to you later.
