Good News! We have found and been accepted for one of the apartments we saw while in Lausanne. It was our first choice and we are very excited! Our lease will start on July 1 but we are hoping that we will be able to move 1-2 weeks earlier.
Here is our view and a photo of the back of the building (we are the second terrace from the top on the left):

Things will start moving quickly now. The packing is scheduled to start on May 23 and complete on May 24 - then the movers come and take everything on May 25th. From then until the end of the month, when we leave Italy, we will be checking into a local hotel.
On May 31, we will be moving into a corporate apartment in Lausanne until we can get into our future adopted home!
Busy, busy, busy.... Fun, fun, fun...
On the home front, we are moving things around and doing some minor packing just to get ready. I am also finishing up on my ceramic projects and thought I would let you see them. Rodin's Adam was baked, base painted gold and then a last coat of patina. The last thing I need do to is polish him, give him a quick coat of varnish and I will be done. The 'Two Seasons' bowl is completely painted and just needs to baked one last time. I am hoping that it will be completed before we leave (if not I will probably have it shipped). Take a look:

| The Spring Flowers... |
Lastly, I thought I would post this because I thought it was cool -
I was in Piazza Navona with a friend and this was just sitting around...

For now that is about it -
We want to send all our friends and family lots of love!
Ciao for now!
