Just isnt really the same...

...This time of the year/trip really makes you remember how much you miss all your friends and family.

So this whole week we have been without reservation but we have a party coming in on the 26th so we've been steadily prepping all week for that. With the free time Anthony and I had the chance to go to Foggia and do a little Christmas shopping for ourselves. He ended up buying a new guitar because he's having withdrawals from not playing. There's just something about waking up, looking out the window to this small Italian town, eating breakfast, and listing to the subtle tunes of an acoustic guitar that just seems to fit nicely. I bout a few little things for myself, mainly a new jacket so I don't stand out like a sore thumb over here, as much. We also happened to run into a older man at a gelateria in Foggia that owns a very high end clothing store. His name, Anthony Lucian Rinaldi. Were finding numerous copies of our lovable Ant and each one with there own story, he starting to become a nice conversation piece. We also got to go and finally see one of the windmills, that are scattered around this area, up close. Now let me be the first to say that if you ever see one of these and get the opportunity to see it up close, go. It was...an experience, to see something that large moving in perfect harmony. Definitely got you thinking.

But in all a good week and now for the lonely holiday weekend.

Missing everyone back home.
Pace&Amore
