trains......

somehow this morning we find ourselves in paris. it was a long trip up from salerno starting yesterday morning around eight and arriving here this morning at about 8:30. so you see, we just spent 24 hours travelling on trains. it was nice to wake up in paris and walk to the hotel we stayed in before and even get our same room. now we are in our favorite neighborhood just enjoying the familiar sights (first order of business was eating nutella crepes). we feel like now we can relax and enjoy the rest of our stay in europe before heading home on friday. on sunday we took a train from salerno over to pompeii to explore the ruins. it was truly astonishing! we had no idea it was so well preserved. even after about three hours wandering around inside, we still hadnt seen even half of it. then we spent our last real night in italy stuffing ourselves with pasta. we even ordered one without knowing what it was and it turned out to be SO good. now we are off to wander around paris! love rach and steph
