Getting to Paradise!

Let me tell you, getting to Siena, Italy was no piece of cake.
That plane.  First commerical flight ever. and LONG!
It was only 9 hours, but we had a delay for 2 hours as we were sitting on the runway.
It was an overnight trip, so they intended everyone to sleep, but seriously?
Definitely not comfortable!
Here are some views from the airplane.
nasty storm clouds that made our plane be delayed by two hours.


gorgeous sunset made it all worth it though!

view from my seat!

We arrived at Frankfurt, but there was really nothing to see in the airport!
Onto the next flight, Rome!
I loved the hustle and bustle of that city.
The architecture of the buildings was just stunning!



Then a group of us took a bus to Siena and the countryside was gorgeous.
Picture mountains, sunflowers, and old towns!



And here is lovely Siena.
Also, the yummy food that we ate!

seriously, the best bruschetta I have ever put in my mouth!

My favorite of the two was the pesto pasta!
