Ciao! I am here, in Italy! It is such a beautiful place. Today, I visited Rome, the capital of Italy. It is about 43 degrees north latitude, and 13 degrees west longitude. Rome is one of the oldest cities in Italy. There is so much history that I need to learn!

Yesterday, I was in Venice, Italy. In Venice, they travel by boat, since it is surrounded by water. And all the houses in Venice are built on the water! It’s so different than Illinois. I saw the Leaning tower of Pisa. Did you know that the tower of Pisa tilts about 15 ft?

I took a train ride around the Alps Mountains, and I saw a lot of hawks!

Most of the people are Catholics. They celebrate Christmas and Easter. Italians like to eat pork, fish, pasta and wine. Their favorite sport is soccer.”

I don’t know anything else. So, should I include more?
