Gelato...

Oh, how I love the gelato! And for some reason I waited almost a week in Italy before having some. I had thought Emmy told me about a place where they serve the best gelato which is chilled to different temperatures based on the flavour. Well, she said no such thing. And now I have a sinking feeling I dreamt it. Oh well, I am trying to catch up now. And it truly is amazing. The flavours vary but as everyone can guess, I do love the chocolate variety! So, this is me in front of the Vatican with gelato in hand (yes, that is a big cone with 4 flavours - I said, I have a lot of catching up to do!)



Yesterday was a really long day. I went on a field trip with Emmy to Caserta (very close to Napoli). We went to a Buffalo Mozarella Farm and saw how the cheese is made. Very cool and check out my stylish duds!



Then we went to Caserta, and after a very slow lunch (Italian style which means the kitchen cooks what he wants when he wants) we went to Reggia Caserta, the palace built to look like Versailles. The rooms were stunning.

We got into Roma late and then I crashed. It has been a very bust week in Roma but I have enjoyed it all. And tomorrow is the big day - here I come Il Papa!

So, I will update you later.

Love, Lisa
