After an awfully long tantrum and pout, I've finally been re-phone-janated! 

The DTs experienced going from an iPhone to a flip phone were horrendous. I'm here to tell you we might all become zombies simply if the electricity and WIFI go out. It's a real possibility! No bite needed.

I've got an unlocked Italian iPhone now (no thanks to Boost Mobile) and can take photos and GoPro again, but I'm really sad about the things I didn't get the opportunity to show you:

• The old German ladies wearing bikinis on the beach
• The old italian men wearing bikinis on the beach (not sure which was worse!)
• My trip to Castiglion Fiorentino, with its Etruscan ruins
• My trip to Orvieto, with amazing frescoes
• Wonderful Arezzo, where I spent two weeks at Italian language camp
• New friends from my time in Arezzo
• Frescoes in Arezzo
• Dapper old Italian men strolling the promenade in Viareggio in linen pants and straw hats
• A group of ex-pats I've met in Milano and the party I attended
• And so much more... I'm verklempt. 

At any rate, I have my phone now, and I'm headed to the stazione to pick up my friend Leanne, who is here for a visit from the US! (Ok, OK, she's technically from Canada...... but she's coming from CLT!)

More soon!!
