My baby is home...

A vespa 
Sarah was ready for school! 

The bar near the school at the top of via Bertani


They made it! 

Typical chaos at the commune di Genova. Apparently, school is not "closed" but lessons are "suspended". Therefore, in theory, if students and their teachers show up, school is open. According to first hand accounts, Sam, Sarah and her teacher Tania - who lives in the hills behind Genoa where there is 20+ centimeters of snow and made it to the school gates, were turned away by the "bidella", school matron, who told them school was closed. I can safely predict this controversy with be argued about for months - it is all the local news is talking about this morning. 

At least everyone in home safe and sound.
