Here are some pics of the rental car that I have been driving. It is a 6 passenger vehicle, however the 5th and 6th seats are really popups in the trunk! That’s were John sits if needed. Last week, Preston went to Italy for 3 days on business, so I returned the 8 passenger bus they initially gave us for a smaller car I could drive and most importantly park! It is a standard shift diesel, the most popular combo here. Here's a shout out to my dad who made me learn to drive a standard shift before he would allow me to get my license. Gas mileage is great in the car, gas prices not so great. Fortunately, I have not had to fill the tank yet.
Some of the driving rules are different, so I am learning as I go along. I can drive in France because of an agreement SC has with France. Daniele thinks I need to go to driving school though!

Hahaha! Yes, we have to give props to dad for that stick-shift rule. I thought it was ludicrous at the time, but have since been grateful for it on more than one occasion! I"m glad to see you all are enjoying yourselves! Even if Dani thinks you're putting their lives in danger while behind the wheel :P. Just kidding... I pray the adventures continue and the joy abounds!!!
Love ya'll!!!
