I went to Orvieto I took 2 trains. One took a half an hour and one took an hour. After the train we had to take the "funiculare" up to the city of Orvieto on the hill. The funiculare is like a little train that is pulled up the mountain by a cable.
After we checked into our bed & breakfast, Ripa Medici, we went to a restaurant where we had the traditional Christmas eve dinner of seven fishes. I didn't try them all but I did try the shrimp, the octopus, clams and mussels. We went to midnight mass. It was in Italian and was in a very old church called a duomo in Italian.
We also got a small christmas tree for Christmas. Then we went on the Santa tracker. After we went to bed
Hi, Family! It sounds as if you are having a great trip. We loved Rome. Kayla, doesn't the Colisseum look just like the picture on the first year Latin book at home? We're dying to see some more pictures. It sounds as if you are seeing all the highlights of each place. I didn't know Bob was going with you, Camille. We're waiting for the next bulletin.
