Burr and I continued on to Tuscany and Pisa for a couple days - but that will be a different blog.
Here are pictures for your enjoyment...in no particular order:
Last day - Milan!!!! We actually got tickets to see the Last Supper (Yes did you know you have to get tickets to see it!!) It was really really cool to see. Definately recommended for things to do in Milan.
Out in Milan with Burr and Batten, after lots of wine!!! I recall attempting to "out smart" Steve in their hotel room after while he was quite sober and I failed, miserably.
Best thing ever!!!! GELAtO!!! Believe me we ate a lot of it. My fav flavor - Cinnamon from Como:-) This place in Stresa made ice cream in the shape of a flower - isn't it pretty. (FUN FACT: Anne will always eat all of your ice cream and cone before Burr is even close to finished with the top part of ice cream, this is why he always has to get extra b/c I will eat mine first and then 1/2 of his....and I wonder why I gained weight in Italy).
Lake Stresa - For those who want to get in on the secret. Lake Stresa is 100 times better than Lake Como....its so beautiful and relaxing. Not dirty and touristy....fabulous. Look at those hydrangeas!!!
Lake Bellagio - Where the celebs lie - unfort. No Mr. Clooney sightings for us.
Gondola ride with the family in Venice - Happy Belated Bday Steve!!!
Yummy Resturant in Venice - A couple own it, he is from Venice she is from Texas - delicious.
Love this pic of Batten in Venice while we were shopping!! (I tried some fresh coconut juice - its not good without sugar and rum in case you're wondering - ick).
Us in Venice on the Grand Canal
Venice
On our shuttle bus! Batten - what is the name of that band again? I really did like them :-)
The Fantastic (original) 4.
Our private boat to the hotel - wahoo.
The boys and I hanging out in Venice. I think this is when Batten fell in love with proscuitto and melon. 
At the top of our hotel - rooftop pool waving to FDCC friends - Enjoy the cruise Mr. and Mrs. Gallivan!!!
Family in Venice!
Ahhhhh sad its over. But there are some great memories. Now - how did we get around - the Farrar Family Van of course!!! Lee - I didn't take a picture of this but I need one desperately:-)
