Today is Sunday the 25th of May and I just got back from a Tour of Tuscany. We took a bus around Tuscany in the foothills of the Alps and it was absolutely breathtaking! No picture or words will do justice in a place like Italy. All the open fields and the amazing views of cities or villages were absolutely beautiful. We saw many vinyards and fields of some plant that I don't know. We saw many rose bushes and lavander bushes. I rubbed my hand across the lavander bushes and my hand smelled so good!!!! That is a must if you ever come to Italy. I also was feeling a little homesick and really wanted American food, so what better to eat than a nice BigMac from McDonalds! It was delicious and cured my craving for "American food" and also my homesickness!
I failed to mention the Remedia center in Reggio Emilia. The Remedia center is a place that would be compared to our recycling centers. The Remedia center collects all the unwanted materials from around the city and then teachers from the Reggio schools come to "buy" whatever they want for their classes. This is how the Reggio schools get their materials. They all use recycled materials for their classrooms to help reduce the amount of garbage in the city.
