Captain's Log Star Date June 24, 2009

Today we visited our last port, which was Corfu, Greece. We are all very sad that our trip is coming to an end. We've had many, funny adventures, all of which Kenny has documented with video and pics.

Quick highlights:

Cannes - Topless beaches, sunburns and sore necks (due to topless beaches)

Florence - Leaving people behind on tour buses, gawking at "The David," awesome veal and pasta.

Rome - Gypies and the Trevi Fountain, St. Peter's Basilica, Kevin joining the Catholic Church (purchased rosary beads), sun stroke at the Forum, being blessed at The Vatican. More great food!

Naples - Falling in love with the Amalfi Coast, Lemon cello, ignorant Spanish people on the bus, amazing food on the coast, Pompeii,

Venice - AHHHHHH Venice! Jessa's crush on the gondolier, shopping, good pizza, searching for WC & farmicias, Bellinis.

Croatia - RAIN, HAIL, lunch with eyes, thunder, lightning, crowds, garbage bags and searching for umbrellas.

Corfu - No beach to be found, Italian city found in Greece. Great food, ice cream and good shopping!

Now we are sailing home and looking forward to seeing "little people." We won't eat for weeks! Jessa has been renamed "Bella." I think she is now part Italian.

Ciao!

Brighton High Class of 2009











I did it!  I'm done with High School!  After many long years of waking kids up, going to the counselors office, packets, proms, etc., I AM DONE!

I really enjoyed Jason's graduation.  Thanks to Kenny, we have wonderful pictures to enjoy!

WITHIN THESE CIRCLED HALLS....




It's official!
After many grueling hours of sitting through class, graduation has finally arrived!  We are so proud of Jason.  The question is, is he a Husky or a Bengal at heart?  Maybe a little of both?  

Let's join in the school song..."Within these circles halls, there dwells the soul of Brighton High...something, something, mighty mountains against the azure sky."  Haha it's been a long time!
