Here is Maria and I in Lugano, Switzerland. It was really beautiful. We took the train up from Milan for a day trip. We rented boats and acted like complete dorks. Knowing me, its impossible not to be a dork.
Melodi and I on the paddle boat. We seriously laughed the whole time.
This is Lugano, It really is a beautiful town.
I was really lucky because someone that Maria works with gave her ticket to me to see a show at the famous LaScala Opera House in Milan. How good is that? La Scala is one of the world's most famous opera houses. 
LaScala at night
I went to Cinque Terre, which is a fabulous area of Italy. It is basically 5 mountain towns right next to each other all on the sea. I took this shot just as the sun was going down. Perfect.
