Italians Play Ping-Pong Too

I did not sleep a wink on the plane, but it's alright. I arrived in Sicilia about 400pm there time and about 10am our time. When I went throught the Italian baggage check I met my family int he airport and we finally met. The ride home was good and full of questions. The father is very nice and understanding about the language barrier, but he knows English very well and I have found out that he studied in Ireland and England in his youth. The mother is very nice also. She does not know English as well, but we understand each other fine. The drive home was about 45 minutes and when we arrived in Siricusa it was very condensed, but very nice. We live on a flat in the penthouse of an apartment building and I have a great view of the Ionian Sea. I feel kind of bad because the younger brother gave his room to me.
       Dinner last night was pizza and it was very good. Mine had Italian ham on it. Later that night me and the two brother went out to a friend house and played ping-pong and poker till 1 in the morning and it was very fun. When we came home I went to bed and slept for 15 horus strait, but I thought that would happen because of not sleeping on the planes. For breakfast I had pasta (it was kind of lunch time though) and a fruit they call frutta d'India (like a cactus fruit) Now I am sittin on the computer writing to all you fine people, but i am about to get off. So I will write more of my adventure soon. Ciao
