All caught up

Ok, now I'm all caught up! I have to get used to the format of these blogs, I'll be changing stuff later.

So anyways, I met my host family today!!! They are amazing! I am so glad they are my family! I woke up ridiculously early today because my roommates (I had 2 roommates, the hotel in Roma was like dorm rooms with three beds and a bathroom per room) Then I said goodbye to all the friends I had made from the US, Australia, New Zealand, Denmark, the Netherlands, Austria, and etc. I made a lot of friends. I left Roma at 8:30, and we were in a charter bus that drove us to Bologna. 6 hour bus ride. Actually it wasn't too bad because I made even more friends with people from Hong Kong and some other countries. Bologna was the first stop, I was really nervous. Then my host parents were late, which made me more nervous! But when we finally met I was really happy! We took lots of pictures (I'll try to get one from someone to show you all) then headed to Ferrara.

Ferrara was about 40 min. away. Fortunately my host family was nice, they said for today we'll speak in English (They all know English) and they'll speak more Italian later. Oh by the way, my school starts September 15. We went out for ice cream (gelato) which was delicious. Then when we got to the house I unpacked and relaxed. Dinner consisted entirely of bread, cheese, meat, and salad. It was delicious!!! Then later we went out to go meet some of their relatives who were staying in Ferrara for a few days. And we had more ice cream :3 I'm going to be so fat when I come back xD lol!
