Orvieto & Bologna New Year's Eve Day 5

This day was my last day in Italy! After sleeping about 2 hours, first thing we wanted to do was something that's absolutely memorable!!
One time when I met my another friend in NYC I wanted to do something special so we got on Helicopter tour!

This time, since we didn't have much budget, we decided to cut some bangs together in Italy: ) I don't think it is easy to forget what we did ; ) Before leaving Orvieto we had time to hang out again with our beautiful musician friends!

Sorry to bother your precious practicing time Massimo Chan!
Then the drummer came with his Chicken Mask! I have noooo idea why he brought that all the way to Italy!!! And his Jacket's color, wall color and even my friend's sweater's color matches! How perfect color coordination! With my brother Lionel!!
I bought some souvenir Olive Oil then the lady at the store let me sample delicious prosciutto and bread. I was eating that sample on that street like "Gypsy" and so many Italian gave me a look! I think they are thinking like "Wow!! This Asian is bold!" I could read their Italian minds : )
This is where my friends played that day. How gorgeous! (I am above the banner) Lack of sleep.... Can you see I missed some bangs? After our fun time and last concert we saw in Orvieto, we took train back to Bologna for countdown 2008! We were at this restaurant in Bologna. I had no idea Bologna was kind of famous for happy boys.The couple next to us were these very very happy boys who gave us huge kiss after new year's count down!!

More over I think many people knows but Italian cheers means very embarrassing male body part in Japanese that many happy boys were saying really loud that made me absolutely blush!

What a count down 2008 and exciting start of 2009! (Luckily in this video the happy boy was not saying that word by chance!)

Of course the girl's talk had our final dash until it was less than 2 hours to go to the airport! I just love my friend so much and we just can talk and smile till we pass out : )

My deepest appreciation to Natsuko, Lionel and his beautiful family, our favorite Massimo chan and Ferenc! I love you guys sooooo much and you all are in my heart always even if you don't want to!!! : )

I can't thank you enough for giving me such an amazing and precious time and memory and I thank my husband and Soba for their support for me to have this wonderful time in Italy!

Juri, I enjoyed reading your blog!You are the one who inspires me and makes me step ahead, Juri.
Between the phrases and the words, I paused a bit and thought about that time. I can still laugh remembering these days. I am happy to know that you enjoyed your stay here in Bologna and in Orvieto even on the train so much! We were very fortunated to meet together finally, our big bro. and his family, his rithme mates (!) and all others! People you've met here in Bologna ask me about you, already!
These days with you were absolutely precious also for me!
When I'll cut my bangs again, that orvieto sleepy but cheerful morning will come into my mind!

Thank you, again, Juri for coming all the way over to Bologna. Ryan & Soba, a big thank you to you, too. I missed you this time but hope to see you, soon.
