Hello Italy

Just a quick post to say hello from Italy.

The flight from O'Hare was uneventful and it seems most everyone got at least a little bit of sleep. I think it is safe to say that the excitement of arrival in Italy will keep everyone awake most of the day.

Italy is seven hours ahead of Milwaukee, so our arrival was just before 8 am and we just got on the bus moments ago, a little after 9 am. On our way in from the airport, we're getting a full preview of the day from our Italian tour guide, Fabio.

We're headed to the city center of Rome to begin our touring, with check-in to the hotel slated for later today. So, check back for a full report later today.

And, oh yes, no lost bags except for one - mine.
