After that we did a day trip to Parma, probably the least touristy of all our destinations which was a nice change of pace.

Baptistery |
A day or two later we were guided by the wise Rick Steves through the hilly streets of Assisi.
Umbria |
Medieval balcony |
The girls decided they wanted to tour Pompeii so I took a solo trip to Ravenna. Ravenna is home to some of the oldest and most beautiful mosaics in Italy, as well as Dante's tomb.

Finally, Christine and I just returned from Venice yesterday.
Jenna left us a few days ago but another friend, Jessica, is coming tomorrow and we're planning on having a belated Fourth of July at la Casa Gibb. Burgers and guacamole are on the menu :)
Happy Fourth!
