we have arrived in alagna. we took a train and bus to get here yesterday and had a wonderful dinner with elena and luca. we have our own room up in the mountains. the mountains are very dramatic and right in front of you. the town is in a valley between the mountains. it is a famous spot for skiing. we went up to the mountains where luca keeps his goats. dillon is really trying his tongue at italian and can roll his rs better than i. ciao
