Nelly recovered in time to set off to Italy!
She basically had 4 days of not eating then became more like herself on Tuesday ready to fly off to Italy on Wednesday!
She is busy charming all of Rob's family that meet her and loves playing with her new cousin ( probably 4th removed but hey she does not have many so she enjoys every cousin she can get! ) He is one year older than her but she still lets him know exactly who is boss!
Since arriving we have done nothing but eat Yesterday was her birthday and we went to a local park in the morning and in the afternoon visited a lovely Friulan town called Cividale http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cividale_del_Friuli and bought some Gubana ( local cake ) http://www.taccuinistorici.it/newsbrowser.php?news_id=726&news_dove=1 then back for more eating with two of Rob's cousins.
Despite having left Stansted in glorious sunshine we arrived into Ronchi aiport into fog and cloud! TOday is very foggy so we have planned to do a morning of shopping in Udine - well Nelly and I need shoes and handbags so Italy really is the place!
Tomorrow we are spending the day in Slovenia - it is a beautiful country and there is a market with lots of horses to see, so Nelly will be in her element. Tomorrow evening we will all go to a typical Friulan restaurant for more eating!!! Sunday looks to be good so we may head to a beach so nelly can see the sea and spend the day with Rob's uncle and aunt .....
Obvioulsy pictures to follow of Nelly's first trip o Italy ! She loves saying Ciao Ciao to everyone! !!!
