Weekend Adventures!

My weekend has come to an end....Sunday was a great day! There is a high school in Padova that children ages 14-19 go to that learn how to farm and agriculture. It was fascinated that there is a whole school dedicated to this.

The family left in the morning while I was sleeping, trying to get on the right time zone, and bought to chicks from the school. There is a special chicken that is native to Padova that is actually becoming extinct. Gianmarco, the dad, has a brother that lives about 1 hour away and the family will take the chicks to him eventually.

Around lunch time, Gianmarco came back to the house to pick me up and we went to the school for lunch. We walked around and saw the flowers being grown there.

Federico has a couple of loose teeth and lost one while we were out. It was a monumental day!

Once we all returned to the house, everyone was tired. We took a short nap and then had dinner. Dinner was great, Cristina is a great cook. It was a simple pasta dish of sauteed onion and a can of tomatoes chopped and fresh basil that simmered while the pasta cooked. Im going to write the name down of the tomatoes (pomodoro) and see if Jimmy's carries it. We then had bread and cheese and melon.

When I am getting ready for bed, is when I call home and talk to everyone. But my sleeping schedule was not on course last night. I woke up around 4am, it was a little warm for my liking but eventually the temperature dropped and I went back to sleep around 5am.

Monday the children return to school and around 3:30, Cristina and I, will go to pick them up.

Ciao!
