1. My Summer Trip to
Italy
By Caitlin Nadeau

2. This past summer, I spend 11 days
traveling around Italy with a small
group from my high school, led by our
Latin teacher.
This was our group: Lora, Mr. Yaggy, myself,
Garitt, and Gretja.

3. We flew into Venice, where we
spent 2 days.
This is the Rialto Bridge
over looking the Grand
Canal.

4. Unfortunately on the
second day, my camera
died so I have no pictures
to commemorate it.
A gondola ride in the
rain is surprisingly
fun.

5. Next we explored
Florence.
This is the Duomo, the largest
free standing dome in the
world.

6. As the home of the Renaissance, there were beautiful sculptures
everywhere.

7. As we were leaving, we stopped
at a lookout point above the city.

8. It was
probably one of
the most
beautiful sights
I have ever
seen,
looking out
past this
fake
statue of
David.

9. The next day we spent 10 hours in the bus on the way to
Sorrento,
so of course, sleeping ensued.

10. We made a short stop in the hill
town of Siena.
We climbed to the top of that
tower!

11. The view from the
top was
breathtaking.

12. Next we traveled to the
island of Capri.

13. After a short unexpected
detour to a beautiful
lookout point…

14. we found our way to the
top of the mountain…
to the Villa Jovis.

15. This was the home of
the second emperor
Tiberius.
And amazingly, it is fairly
well preserved.
