Buongiorno

Well the rest of Sunday was very busy. It included a cultural tour of Trapani seeing lots of lovely doorways and trying to guess what might be behind them.

Along the way we collected a very very friendly companion who guided us on our way. We liked to call him Wolfie! He was the local celebrity dog and was well known everywhere we went.

A picnic lunch in the park was followed by the largest ice-creams we have ever seen and the best we've ever tasted, Kit-kat for Max, Pistacchio for Alex and White chocolate Galaxy for Maddison! Yummy!!

We met the rest of the partner schools for pizza last night taking over at least half of the pizza restaurante.

Wow! What a busy time you're all having. Sounds like you are enjoying lots of lovely pizza and the ice-cream flavours sound gorgeous. Well done to Ben for the rowing competition! We're enjoying some lovely sunshine here as we're sure you are! Love to all from 5N

Hi everyone. It looks like you are having a fantastic time. The weather looks great - I hope you are all putting your suncream on. The icecreams sound yummy but you won't be able to bring us one back! Pizza at home will never taste the same after you have had the real thing in Scicily. Wolfie didn't look quite as big as Lucy but she seemed as friendly. Glad you are having a wonderful time, the house is too quiet without you!! Lots of love, Mum Dad Lorna and Lucy(woof woof) xxx
