Discovering Italy

Last weekend, we wanted to go to Italy, but hmmmm. just couldn't fit it in. So, we went to Italy in a virtual experience. We borrowed Discovering Italy from the library. I was very surprised how much Caleb enjoyed the movie, and especially how much he was enamored with the architecture and sculpture. He especially loved David, and the bridges of Venice. He was also very fond of the cathedrals and all of the arches and stained glass windows. His favorite painting that was shown in the film was The Birth of Venus. He asked if we could go to the Indianapolis Museum of Art to see it, but I told him I was pretty sure it was not in Indianapolis. I believe his favorite city was Venice. I loved the areas of Naples, Tuscany, and I also loved Venice. We can't wait to make a real trip there.

We start ball room dancing lessons in March, we may have to learn the Sicilian Tarantella.
