Lessons Learned in the First Week

Things we have learned thus far:
1.) There is no such thing as personal space
2.) Restaurants are available in two hour time slots
3.) No one will bring you a check unless asked
4.) Looking like natives prompts people to speak their native tongue to a rusty Italian and a pure-breed Lebanese...
5.) Via Maqueda is the slums(which is our walk to the hospital)
6.) Via liberta is our new home
7.) Cappucinos are not acceptable after 11 am even though CC keeps ordering them at all times
8.) Gelato is delicious
9.) Grocery stores are hard to come by
10.) If it wasn't for CC this blog would not be possible. For those of you that know me, my typing skills are non-existant... THANKS CC for not only typing all this but for expanding my vocabulary as well (lobster ;) ) =)
