Today was my last shopping day with my market friend from Canada.  She and her family were only here for 1 year and are heading back at the end of June.  That is one of the problems with the International School.  So many people are in Italy temporarily so friends come and go.  Time is flying by now.  My last lesson is tomorrow and my driving test is on Friday.  There are only 6 days of school left.  We got out our suitcases yesterday and have started packing.  We'll have our last lunch with the grandparents Sunday to celebrate Grace's and my birthdays, Father's Day (American) and GP's saint's day (more important than birthdays hereabout).  As GP says, we've already signed out and are only thinking of the summer.  xxoo me
