Lili and Linc Live Abroad: Italy

Days two and three in Italy have been better than the first. The weather is getting even better, with sunny skies and temperatures in the low 60's during the days. We couldn't ask for anything more after living in constant overcast and cold for 2 plus months! We have been wandering around the town of Lucca and today we planned on going to the beach, a 20 minute train ride away. We bought our tickets for 6 euros and waited for the train. I have never seen so many teenage Italians in my life as I saw at the train station this morning. I felt like I was on a blown up version of MTV's the Jersey Shore. I fit in even though I am a 34 year old, as I was wearing my skinny jeans, tennis shoes, and giant sun glasses. When the train arrived, we quickly decided against getting on as there was standing room only, and definitely no room for a stroller for twins. There were Italian teenagers hanging out the sides and looking very excited about the adventures that were upon them. We decided that it was worth the 6 euros for the kids to see the trains and the teenagers and we turned around and went back into Lucca and planned a taxi ride to the beach for tommorrow. No more trains from Lucca for this Perry family of 4, at least until the twins aren't in a stroller. Please enjoy the photos of the past few days in Lucca!
