Saturday, March 5, 2016. Today my wife got back from Fiji. Here we are at the Night Market in Pakuranga on Saturday night feasting on dumplings and pork buns. Work had to go on the back burner as I had to get home early to look after my son, it was worth every second! Really stoked to have my wife home again, missed her like crazy. One of many happy family moments, look forward to more. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Room 4 Glenavon School 2016. Baby photos as promised by Mr Hunte. Rm 8 Blog 2016.

Mr O'Connor's Blog: Amalfi Coast
http://grantoc30.blogspot.com/2016/06/amalfi-coast.html
Saturday, June 18, 2016. We caught a boat out to Amalfi to catch some Sun and lie on the beach. The boat ride was stunning, I had to send an email to my class to show them what I was up to ☺. We may in the sun for a while and swam. My Italian I very limited but managed to teach some kids how to skim rocks. The most unfortunate event happened. Lisa was sun-bathing and I could see the tide coming in, but it came in too fast. Lisa got soaked haha. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Rm 8 Blog 2016.

Mr O'Connor's Blog: Florence
http://grantoc30.blogspot.com/2016/05/florence.html
Sunday, May 29, 2016. There's so much to say in so little time.so I'm going to give only the highlights in this post. We were supposed to be in the south of Italy in Bari, we would then make our way up to Florence. Long story short, Giacomo got sick and we needed to get on the road again. so here we are, Florence. Once the capital of Italy and renound for its history and fashion. The Duomo is spectacular! It's ginormous structure makes for a breath taking sight. The inside, even more georgous. Most pictu...

Mr O'Connor's Blog: Rome
http://grantoc30.blogspot.com/2016/06/rome.html
Saturday, June 11, 2016. By far my favorite place on our trip. So much history. There's so much to talk about in so little time. I'm going to try keep as brief as possible. We used a 'hop on hop off' bus to see the sights of Rome. It definitley was not as good as the one in Florence, but I got to see what I wanted. After Rome we travelled south to Salerno where we took day trips to the Amalfi Coast, Napoli and Pompeii. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Room 4 Glenavon School 2016. Rm 8 Blog 2016.

Mr O'Connor's Blog: Pisa
http://grantoc30.blogspot.com/2016/06/pisa.html
Saturday, June 4, 2016. Pisa is not a place you stay for several days, you're better off to take a day trip to look at the leaning tower and the Duomo. Fun fact:. Each city in Italy has a Duomo. A Duomo is the main church of the city. As we approached the area where the tower was situated we could see the dome of the Duomo. Then, as my eyes focused on the dome, I could see the top of the tower. What a sight! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Room 4 Glenavon School 2016. Rm 8 Blog 2016.

Mr O'Connor's Blog: Naploi
http://grantoc30.blogspot.com/2016/06/naploi.html
Sunday, June 12, 2016. We did Napoli as a day trip from Salerno. We had fine weather in Salerno but Naples was raining. To make things worse, we left our itinerary in Salerno. We caught the Metro to find the Duomo but to no avail. Not all was lost. Julia Roberts in the movie ' Eat, Pray, Love'. The que to get inside was massive. It must be a popular pizzeria. Giacomo was loving it and scoffed back the pizza in no time. Anyone that goes to Naples needs to visit this place, but expect a long wait.

Friday, February 12, 2016. Movie in the park. My family and I are at Smales Park in Takapun getting ready for Finding Nemo. It's really hot and it's raining all over my face! Sunday, February 7, 2016. Gym was closed, so I decided to come down to the Panmure Basin to go for a run. 'WHAT WAS I THINKING' Seriously! Nice place to come and hang out with God though ☺.

Saturday, June 18, 2016. Salerno was awesome. It was our base for the south. From here we travelled to Amalfi, Pompeii and Napoli. We stayed with a very nice couple who treated us like family. They absolutely loved Giacomo and miss him very much. The lady who hosted us even called the other day to ask how we were going. We caught a boat out to Amalfi to catch some Sun and lie on the beach. The boat ride was stunning, I had to send an email to my class to show them what I was up to ☺. First we walked arou...
