Citerna at Last

Memphis-Detroit-Amsterdam-Rome-Citerna


Its been a long couple days of travel, but i am happy to report everyone has arrived in Umbria save and sound. The plane rides were not as bad as i had thought they would be, mostly because of my uncanny abaility to sleep at any given time, at any given place, for any given amount of time. I thought it was actually pretty funny tht i fell asleep right outside of nova scotia canada and woke up over ireland and some of my classmates slept a solid ten minutes on the near eight hour plane ride.








This sememster i will be introducing a new segment to my blog. It is called THE TRAVEL FACES OF PRESTON PINSON...

Memphis Airport/Detroit-Notice how the excitement and glee turns into...Am i really doint this?!





Amsterdam-Deep emotional soul searching occurs once he realizes that Europe is just outside the airport doors













We got to Hotel Sobaria in Citerna around dinner time. We had a great dinner of pasta and meat sauce, tomatoes with some sort of cheese and oil drenched over it, salad and other things ive forgot about. But it was great. I am really looking forwar to the meals here..haha im such a fatty. I can smell breakfast so i am about to go eat, but i'll leave this blog with one final image-Flying over the Swiss Alps. I love everyone of you!
