Posillipo-move #3

      We moved into a first floor appartment yesterday.  We are here for about a month or so. It is such a nice open, spacious and bright place!  We are most excited to have a kitchen and washer and dryer-no more Hotel Laundry magic, but it will be nice to do our laundry when we want and for A LOT less than 275 Euros a week! :)
     Most of the appartment is furnished by IKEA: simple, modern and comfortable!  Our landlady is really nice and has been helping us learn a little Italian.  She has also been to the Pacific Northwest! There are 2 large maps on the wall of the Seattle area and of west Canada. Perfect, huh?!
     The area where we are is a lot more peaceful than where we were in the city at the hotels.  Our view is breathtaking-we can see part of the bay and when it is clear, part of Capri and Ischia.  We have yet to venture around here so we don't know exactly whats around us out on the street. A whole new area for us to explore!  Juliann requested a mellow day so we will venture out tomorrow.

   On another note, we have met a delightful young family who has also moved to Italy recently.  Juliann got to babysit the 2 boys a few weeks ago too.  It has been so nice to spend time and get to know Sophie and the boys a little bit. We also got to meet several people from Il Faro International Church last Sunday.  A family invited us over for lunch afterward and we had a great time!  One of the best parts of travel is the people we get to meet. What wonderful blessings!!

Oh, very cool. This looks very comfortable. How come you can't stay the rest of your time in this apartment?

OH PRAISE GOD!!! You all have been heavy on my heart. I'm so glad God found you a place even for a month.
