Italy - Salerno
June 7 - 13 Week 1.

Our first week at school was a little challenging. We arrived on Monday morning to find out that beginners usually start every 2 weeks and we were mid cycle....something the agency failed to tell us.... so we started school with a class that had already been learning Italian for a week and who were mostly at least bilingual already.... mmmmm.... we have always liked a challenge :-0.
Our class was great fun and our teacher very understanding so we did get through but decided that we really should start again with a new class next week and learn the basics properly.  
Brii’s birthday also fell this week and was celebrated with a quiet dinner and wine overlooking the Salerno seaside.
The weekend saw us relax and do not much at all. We wandered around Salerno and gathered some information about things to do in the coming weeks. We also changed our accommodation. We were fortunate to be able to change and move in with a host family or Signora as the case may be.
