sandandwaterI didn't really intend to celebrate tonight but Marcello was very insistent and Alessandro wouldn't let me stay in my room. I'm some hours ahead of all of my US-based friends so I'm sure you are all still finalizing plans and trying to decide what to wear. As for me, we've been passing around the wine, eating far too much food and Marcello has been taking many, many pictures. I've taken his camera away to clear some of them off.
I told Paola, one of my neighbors here, that there are so many people at this party, it almost feels like trying to navigate the streets of Manhattan. Of course, everyone is nicer, happier, and instead of giving you the finger if you bump into them they give you a hug and kiss.
Maybe it's all the wine talking, but I'm actually having a good time tonight.
As for me, here's what I've got on:
That's Signore Ermanno, one of Alessandro's close friends. He keeps telling me to eat more, fatten up and find a good husband. I just laugh because really, what am I going to say to that?
Other than, according to this unflattering photo, fattening up is something I do not need to do.
This is a much better picture. And yes, those are fish on my dress. Aren't they adorable?
