Cagliari

On Thursday afternoon, I arrived in Sardinia in my new home. The weather was beautiful and my host family was very nice. They helped me unpack and drove me around the city. We visited the old city, which has ruins and a great view of the island, and they also brought me down to the beach for sunset. Unfortunately, my camera cord is in my luggage that had to be mailed from Milan but I will have pictures up in the next couple of days. My first day of school was crazy and I didn't understand much of the lessons. My schedule includes English, which I understood well, Italian, Latin, Math, Science, Physics, Gym, Religion, Philosophy, and Art History... all in Italian. Fortunately, I'm picking up Italian quickly and every day it gets easier to talk to my host family. Life seems to be pretty simple and so far I am very much enjoying it.
