| Before we go I have to set up my
band again - in a tent! |
Our first stop is Stresa, where
Daddy's friend Luigi has a fancy hotel |
|
 |
 |
 |
| Lea and I are waiting for our
parents to check in |
See our room there? |
On a boat with Daddy |
 |
 |
 |
| On Isola
Bella |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
|
|
|
 |
 |
 |
|
Back in our fancy hotel room |
I'd like to have breakfast on
our balcony, please |
 |
 |
 |
|
Our first sunset in Elba
-
that's the view from our house |
Even here I can put together
drum sets. These metal chairs will work fine as drums |
 |
 |
 |
| Mommy shows us where we are |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| I'm trying to teach Lea how to
drum |
|
And she's teaching me how to
water the plants |
 |
 |
 |
| Did Daddy scan in a postcard?
No, this is real! |
|
Lea and I picking Rosemary for
the dinner |
 |
 |
 |
| A view of our beach from our
house - near Capoliveri |
|
Mommy and Pia |
 |
 |
 |
| Lea in her sailor outfit |
I have a somewhat matching
outfit. We're getting ready to go out to dinner |
|
 |
 |
 |
| That's our breakfast table |
|
The sunsets here are great (but
don't tell that to Nanny...) |
 |
 |
 |
| The steps connecting our part of
the house to Jan, Pia, and Lea's part of the house |
Mommy and Pia both wearing
polkadots - by chance! |
Ready for another 2-family
dinner |
 |
 |
 |
| Some more pictures on our last
morning. That's Selima holding Lea |
|
This is on our roof terrace, by
the way |
 |
 |
 |
|
Now we're on the car ferry back
to the mainland |
|
 |
 |
 |
| I think you all know where this
is |
I got a little model of the
leaning tower to take home |
|
 |
 |
 |
| Unfortunately I have to be eight
years old before I can climb the tower |
My conducting debut! That's me
conducting the Blaskapelle Arnstorfer at the Arnstorfer Volksfest |
I conducted three pieces and
would have kept going too, but then it was Roland's turn to conduct. |
 |
 |
|
| Thanks, Daddy, for practicing
with me! |
Maybe one of these years Daddy
will take me to the Wagner Festpiele in Bayreuth |
