What a Wonderful Place!!!!!!!

This bridge is across the street from my school. It is a beautiful place. Everyone riding bicycles. People are so friendly. Steve says I don't get in enough pictures, so Gregg took this. I look really thin so I decided to post it.

This is two of our girls. they are so cute and fun to be around. Y'all know I like young people. Well these girls will help keep me young. They are always busy but never in trouble.
Mike taking a stroll around the fountain in the garden. It is truly unbelievable.
Eddie is standing in front of the fountain looking all angelic. What he would love to be doing is riding his skateboard on the ridge of the fountain. and through all the manicured gardens. He is showing such restraint.


Our day was started with a wine tasting and learning about the wines of the Piemont. Lots of fun. We were not allowed to get drunk at 9:30 but it was fun anyway.
Then we were in a demo by our chef the rest of the day. He name is Bruno and he is really great. We are all looking forward to getting in the kitchen.
Tomarrow we have a demo from a chef in the Piedmont. Then on thursday we go to the Piedmont for a field trip. Friday will be our first day in the kitchen. Oh ya, tomarrow is my first Italian class here in Italy. Wish me luck. Chef told us today we will have no tests until after our stage. I goy up and did a dance. The other students are so calm looking here. In New York the French culinary students always seemed stressed. Here everyone is calm. Our lunches are really good and we get a full hour. This is truely a great adventure with 19 extraordinary people.
