good morning!

I am happy to see that our 3 hours is from when we are actually online, not from when we log in to three hours later. so i am able to still use our time, and if i budget it wisely, maybe we will only need to buy one more card.

today is... thursday! we get to see you kids on monday!!! we miss you sooo much! i do have a postcard with the chapel of the miraculous medal, i will try to remember to take a picture of it today and upload it to photobucket so at least you could take that to little flowers. daddy did take a picture of the plaque that was outside the door of the chapel. if you didn't see it in photobucket, email oovoo or leave a message and i will upload it.

today we are going to be doing our laundry this morning. we will probably eat our scrawny breakfast here first and then go down the street. while it is going we might go get a coffee or something if it is within sight of the laundry. then we are off to visit one of the many churches i want to see in rome, or maybe the coloseum. this afternoon we have scavi tickets, so we are going in the catacombs underneath st peters. we get to actually see st peter's bones. and many other pope's. it sounds kinda creepy, but how could we resist to go see st peter himself?!

i really want to hit some of the shops that are over by the vatican. they are by far the cheapest as for souveniers that we have seen in the couple of districts we have been in. they had hats for 1.80 euros and tee shirts for 4. there is a hard rock rome that daddy wants to go to for dinner, but it is quite a ways away (when walking) so hopefully we can still go at some point.

ok, i'm off to go look up the addresses of some of the churches i want to visit. 'see' you tonight on oovoo! love you!!! love, mom and dad

ps, natalie i can't wait to hear how your program went!! and hayden, i can't wait to hear how your potluck went!!
