So tonight after the survey team learned the language and observed the Italian phenomenon of "strolling" they learned how to cook an Italian meal and then we ate that meal with several of our Italian friends. Some of those friends are part of our church and some of the others are not. We had a blast with all of them, then some of us went out for gelato before turning in for the night.
It gave the survey team a chance to spend time with Italians on a deeper scale than we probably will as we go through four strange cities. This way they could start to fall in love with the Italian people and also have something to compare their other experiences with.
Here are some pictures from the dinner together, which Angie did a great job cooking with Heather's help as well as some survey team helpers in the kitchen. Tomorrow morning the team is meeting at our house where we have a full slate planned of briefing the trip together, breakfast, previewing the evalutions and observations for the prospective cities and then heading to the train station for our first city, Treviso. We ask that God protect us and guide us on our journey.
