Better late than never right? I went with Brent in Feb. to Padova, Italy on one of his many business trips there this year. Ok, he has really only traveled about 4 times this year I think, but it feels like A LOT to me! Between Italy, Germany, England, China and multiple trips to Ireland it is quite a bit for someone that stays at home like me. ;) My friend Shannon met us there, so we were able to go sight seeing and traveling while Brent and Sean were at work. Shannon's husband was nice enough to let her go alone while he stayed home working and helping with kids! We stayed in Padova, but took the train to Venice several days. It took about 15 min. with the fast train. I got to travel alone to Venice one day before Shannon arrived, which made me a little nervous since English is not the primary language spoken. I did make it there and back though!
Eating out at a pizza place in Padova.
Train ride back to Padova after our day in Venice, they have a big festival similar to Mardi Gras.
Leather district in Florence. We also went to Rome for a day trip. We could have spend days just in Rome!
I have more pictures somewhere, if I can find them! We got a new computer a few months ago and I am STILL learning how to use this thing! Hopefully I can catch up on all of our news from this year!!
