Italy

On our way to Italy (with a layover in Lisbon).

The Lisbon airport was pretty fun. 

Snoozing on the flight to Rome.

We found a super cute town near our house in Umbria.

Don't worry, we stopped for gelato.

Rosie and Nina were pool pals.

Pizza making.

Sonja turned 6!

Rosie got her eyebrows filled in by Nina. They're definitely Icelandic.

The biggest and the smallest.

All the girls.

The pool got a lot of use.

Drone catching.

ABC: Always be climbing.

Sveinn and Mary were the first to find the cathedral in Orvieto.

Another pool, another amazing view.

But sometimes Rosie just needs to relax.

Mary really stepped up her ping pong game during the trip.

Sight seeing in Todi.

Of course the girls needed to take a break from all the fun with an ipad.

Pre-dinner theatre.

For some reason the girls were really pumped about wine tasting.

We stopped by the Duomo in Florence.

Visiting the building where I stayed the summer of 2002.

I think Rosie feels a little too at home in a golden carriage.

Even Mary caved and rode the carousel.

Hotel slippers were a big hit.

The final gelato of the trip.

Sveinn knows his purpose: to entertain his gaggle of nieces.

Inga wasn't about to miss out on some ipad fun on the flight home.
