Fall Dinghy Series Finale

Wow!  What a summer and fall we have had! We have made so many new friends and the children have loved learning how to race sailboats.  The Fall Dinghy Series that FYC Jr. Yacht club organized was amazing and truly taught our children to make time on the water part of their weekly schedule- we all need to do that. 
I will share more pictures later but felt like this was a fitting image for the summer's end.

Buona Sera from outside Basilica Maria Maggiore

Today....a tour of basilica's. St. Paul outside the wall where the apostle Paul was born, St. Pietro in Vincoli where the shackles that held Peter are, and Santa Maria Maggiore where part of the manger Jesus was laid in resides. The Italians definitely have the living word here.
Pete might just remember he wanted to buy a straw hat or a pencil sharpener that looked like a catapult.
Happy birthday Dee!
