2 Awkward Moments in Italy

2 awkward moments in Italy, and of course, Charlee girl is at the center of both of them ;)

The first, a lady with a long pointed nose wearing a black jacket walks into the terminal to wait for the subway.  Charlee pointing at her yells, "Mom, look, a witch!  Ahhh, I scared."  (all as she dramatically shivers) Luckily, I don't think the lady spoke English or really heard her, as we would have been mortified!

The second was in the Borghese gallery.  The Borghese gallery is one of the most famous museums in Italy.  We knew very little about it, but the owners of our bed-and-breakfast offered to book us a tour, so we said sure.  A beautiful museum, but as soon as we arrived, we knew we needed a plan.  First off, we explained to Hailee how women and men's bodies would be shown in Italian art.  She was very mature about it I might add!. Then when we got in the museum, Bill took Hailee so they could talk about the pieces and read about them, while I took Charlee and we played a whisper game.  I would tell her to find the dog or the baby, and she loved it.  She actually was pretty amazed with the ceilings on her own.  Here's the awkward, well actually hilarious part.  Charlee didn't get the same conversation about what she might see.  So when she saw the naked women, she said "Mommy, she take a shower."  Now, when she saw the man, she pointed at him, covered her mouth and giggled.  I asked her what was funny, her response- "Mommy, he pooped."  We were all laughing so hard we were nearly in tears!!

By the way, we got several compliments from other's in the museum about how well behaved our girls were.  Little did they know ;)
