Trip to Italy: Milano
We stay for a week near Milano wtih Letizia's mom & sister.

We took the kids to an Aquapark & to the pool, to a nature park & for an ice-cream in the evening, something we had really missed.

Alyssa had been looking forward to this trip for just one reason... " I want to do cannonball in the water," nothing else seemed to interest here. Here is a clip of that special moment:



Jamie in one of his pensive moments:
