Blogging About Blogging

Hi.

“My name is Emma. I am going to tell you about blogging….

When we started blogging about stuff, we were complaining about blogging, but now I like it because I like the sound, the feeling of the keys, and want to learn to type really fast (even though I already know how [...]

Christopher Columbus

Aboard Christopher Colombus' Santa Maria in Huelva, Spain

Columbus was a great guy. He had sailed the ocean blue. He started in Huelva, Spain, August 3, 1492. When we went to Huelva, we visited life size models of Columbus’s ship. It was really cool and really scary because the boat [...]

Hola Arabella!

Our highlight from Spain was two hours away, across a bridge, and Portugal, the magical land in which our dear cousin, Emma, lives with her adorable daughter, Arabella, and her husband and stepdaughters. Arabella was the cutest baby, a year old with strawberry-blonde and bright blue eyes shining with a curiosity for the wonderful world [...]

Spain School

The other day we went to a school in Spain. It was the school of the owners son of the villa we stayed in. It was fun. We arrived at 8:00 or so and went into a second grade class and had a question and answer session. Then we went to a fourth grade class [...]

Bags

Leaving Italy

Leaving Italy was so sad. I didn’t want to leave, nobody did really but reality came and we had to. The saddest part was that Barbara was coming home from the hospital and we didn’t get to see her. The best part though is that we will see the Pucci’s again because we are coming [...]

Tobia

When we were in Venice it was so fun but the best part was our gondolier. His name was Tobia. He was so nice and so young. And even with him so young he had been practicing for 7 years.  Also for such a young guy he knew a lot.  He was sooooooooo nice he [...]

Meet Josh

Josh is a person I met on the train. He was a lot like me, in other words, an A or F student. He was around 23, 24, 25, or 26. He was with his friends going to his friend’s wedding. He was so nice. He was 6 feet tall with a black duck bill [...]

Italian School

The other day we visited the school of the city that we stayed in, Pontassieve. The school was not much different then ours. When the bell rings its like a rain drop to an ant pile. With schools in Italy there is a different schedule to the school days, everyday Monday through Saturday 8:00 [...]
