We arrived back in England Thursday and John's mom had a nice Lasagna waiting for us. John refused to eat any more Italian food so he went to the fish shop to get himself some fish and chips. We shared our trip with them and then hit the sack.

The next morning we lounged around the house until we decided to go play 9 holes of pitch and putt...which is golf where you only play with a pitching wedge and a putter. John gave me a 3 stroke handicap for each hole, but unfortunately for him I didn't need a handicap. We put 25 cents on each hole and I ended up winning 2.50 because we went double or nothing on the last. I wasn't as good as John obviously but he did say I was great for a beginner. I think I may take up the game!

Otherwise we have just spent the last few days relaxing. We had a great time in Italy but it was not a relaxing vacation and we were exhausted afterward. Tonight I am making Poppy Seed Chicken for the family...if we can ever find poppy seeds in England. Chao!
