line up outside a gelato shop next to Vatican City…we ate gelato closer to our Rome apartment
Lets face it. Ice cream is awesome. And it’s one of the many things we’ve been enjoying on our diverse trip. Ice cream\gelato is my favourite dessert. Why you may ask, well because of all the different flavours. Continue reading
When we went to Expo in Milan it was super crazy. We had taken a high speed train to Milan and two other trains to get to Rho Fiera and were already pretty tired. We needed to be out of the house ten to eight to catch our train, we needed to be up by around seven so we had some extra time. When we finally arrived in Expo we went in line for security we didn’t have to wait very long though there was a super short line, when we got to the front you had to go through security that was like security in an airport. When we got to the expo site we were looking for a, neat pavilion, and a place to eat. We ended up finding a pavilion first, the first one that we went to was the Luthawainin pavilion, the second the Israel one. These first two that we went to were probably were some of my favourite ones. In the Luthawainin pavilion there was a giant globe that was sectored into hectogons Inside some of them there was games. In the Israel one there was a videos being projected some in English, some in Italian with English subtitles. When we wanted to get food we went to food truck nation first, when we found that there was practically no food trucks open ( being the Second day, the first there were a lot of riots). We went to EATALY to eat. At EATALY you went to the differnt regions and picked what you wanted.
We went pavilion to pavilion exploring when we reached the sad conclusion of we had to go😓😓😓😓😓😕😕😕. When we went to eat dinner we went to the Argentinian pavilion and had lots of meat.👍👍👍👍👍
When we finally got back to our awesome medieval watchtower house most of our feet hurt and we were pretty tired.😴😴 I’m not quite ready for the next world expo, but I do know where the 2017 expo is going to be
I love the food that we’ve had so far and can’t wait to try more, Isy

Our 1st trip outside of visiting the magic kingdom was to Costa Rica in 1998. As we hung out waiting for our flight to Central America in the LAX terminal, culture shock hit me. I couldn’t understand the instructions given over the PA by the airline attendant. I suffered in absolute dread: where were we going & what have I done. Sensing my discomfort, Rhoneil assured me those words were in English… that wasn’t reassuring! There was an overwhelming mix of passengers including many people headed to Guatamala carrying chicken.
