Oh my g-d! You guys look like you are having the best time. I totally remember dragging my bags through cobblestone streets. When did the girls grow up?!?!

Once again, I can't help but respond after the beautiful description of Venice, and your activities. You actually give me such a wonderful education, and it is all so very interesting. You make me feel as if I am experiencing everything with you. Please Tell Tetah, Aida, Hannah, and Emma, and Ronnie, how much I am enjoying hearing about each one of them, and seeing them pose with such panache, in all of the photos!!!!Hug them and kiss them for me, and tell them them how very much I love them!!!

Verona, Italy looks like the place to be! People watching! Charming Hotel! Great Food! Great Concerts! and Great Shopping! and beautiful Ambiance!!! The arena looks awesome!!!Tetah must be loving it!!!! And Once again , Your girls are beautiful!!! When others are people watching, they must be admiring your quite extraordinary beautiful family!!!
Aida ,Hannah, Emma, and Olivia are their own visitor's attraction in Switzerland,Italy and beyond!!!!

I hope you don't mind my taking up so much blog space! But your wonderfully planned excursion, is so inspiring, I can't help myself!!!
I schep Nachat at the children's performances, at school, and science fairs, and graduations, etc. But seeing the children ,experiencing all these incredible places, and understanding , the culture and beauty they are so fortunate to be a part of , just blows me away!!!

What a gift you are giving them. The words "Schepping Nachat " pales to explain how I feel!

We had a very similar laundry experience at Yosemite last summer. The staff let us use their commercial machines too. You're starting to sound a little like Francos! Be careful!

Rachel, could you continue his blog when you get home? You are so incredibly busy, and I yearn to hear about you and the children every single day!!!! This fills my heart with so much joy!!! I love you so very much!!!!

If you haven't realized by now, there is no describing how much I am enjoying this trip with you!!
This blogging and picture taking is Great! Rachel, you don't have to go home and begin a scrapbook of your adventures, Its all right here!!! This idea is PRICELESS!!!
Tetah , suggesting your laundry be done in the hotels commercial machines was brilliant!!!
Every single member of this family and their individual personalities, are creating the best movie, and novel that should be written and produced!!!!!
KUDOS TO THE HASSON FAMILY!!! YOU ARE BRILLIANT AS WELL AS BEAUTIFUL!!

Tickle Trail looks like fun!!!

Once again, I am so grateful that Tetah is with you! But I fear that you are converting her to your "Mishagaus"(craziness, a word probably included in your new found vocabulary!) Allow her a day of total pampering, a good massage might be in order.
On another note, I had been trying for years to have the children watch the movie "The Sound of Music" with me, and they nixed the idea.
Now, they can make the movie themselves!!!!
Keep these picturesque blogs , and photos coming!!!! What a joy to experience !!!!

Wow! You guys are awesome! That ropes course looked tough! You go girls! Mom, I am very proud of you for going down that water slide. I think you're coming back twenty years younger. We missed you in Paris but we're glad you're having fun there. Give my girlies a giant hug and kiss from me :)

Thanks everyone! We can't save you any chocolate because it will melt of we don't eat it! Sorry!

GO HASSONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reading your blog and pictures beats watching the world cup.

So fun to follow you this way!! So glad Teta changed her mind! Looks like an awesome time already and you're just getting started! Save me some chocolate
