I heart Verona

Interesting tidbit from Wikipedia on Verona:

Balcony of Juliet


"Verona is the setting of the story of Romeo and Juliet, made famous by William Shakespeare. Although the earliest version of the story is set in Siena, not Verona — the move was made in Luigi da Porto's Istoria novellamente ritrovata di due Nobili Amanti — a balcony falsely claiming historical connection to the fictional lovers has become a tourist attraction for lovers.."

Wow, good to know that you finished ur second last paper and now enjoying yourself.

The scenery looks fantastic!

And it's good to see that you still looks pretty much the same. Have not transformed into a different size. :)
