we went out to a pizza place with andrea, her daughter, hannah, and their friends.
the three of us all ordered the spinach and feta pizza…
i just added some mushrooms and black olives too it.
lang and i also had quite the experience with the squatty potty.
let’s just say it was interesting.
afterward, all of us walked across the street to enjoy our last bit of real gelato.
i had a bowl of snickers, dark chocolate and mint.
man, am i going to miss italian gelato.
back at the house,
the three of us spent the evening packing up our things, again.
andrea is so sweet; she made us each spritz aperols to enjoy.
this morning, we woke up fairly early to make it to the airport by 9 am.
andrea was kind enough to drive us there and on the way we found a field of poppies.
lang and i had been waiting for this moment since we arrived in italy almost a month ago.
it was the perfect end to our trip together.
kate’s plane left at 11 am.
lang’s left at 1 pm.
mine, on the other hand, wasn’t until 9 pm.
so, i literally spent an entire day at the airport.
it wasn’t as bad as i thought though.
i finished my anne lamott book.
read the book of hebrews.
read almost all of the shack.
did a lot of listening to music.
spent some time sitting on a bench outside.
paid for 2 hours of internet.
oh, and i finally found a chocolate magnum bar!
best moment ever. kate and lang will understand this. haha!
when i was finally able to check my pack,
i went to the gate and found out that my flight was delayed another hour.
so i did some exploring in the shops.
the only interesting thing i found was this anne lamott book in italian.
i didn’t end up leaving venice until 10 pm,
arriving in ireland a little before midnight.
the flight was a little lonely,
but I was quickly reunited with friends.
our family friends in dublin picked me up at the airport
and brought me to their house where i will be for the next 2 nights.
tomorrow, brian, a friend of my dad’s,
will show me around dublin a little.
