1/15/2005: In awe of Assisi

The scenery we have seen today is nothing short of astounding. The weather finally cleared up, and the view of the valley from Assisi is beautiful. Around Sorrento, the water is just so blue -- almost like sapphires. I have taken so many pictures today--I just hope that the colors show through. One thing I have learned over the past couple days--digital and film are not created equal. The hotel is four stars so that is really great, too.

However, as much of a good time as I am having here, nothing can equal what home is like. Not homesick all the time, but for a little while at least each day -- the food, the people, the familiarity...just home in general.

All right, I think that is all for now. Ciao!
