The Final Blog

That's it. It's over. Our summer at CCI has come to an end. Though tears were being shed on our final day together, it didn't stop us from getting dressed up and putting on our dancing shoes.




After a short bus ride we arrived at the dance hall. We were served a quick meal then hit the dance floor. 



Even though classes were over, Mr. Simpson taught us one last lesson: no one dances like a Simpson! Unfortunately we didn't get a photo of his impressive moves, but they will surely be remembered.

 




In the end, it was a great night, but an even greater summer. We came as strangers, and left as family.




Although our summer at CCI is over, we will carry the memories of the trip with us. We'll remember the trips to Rome, and Florence. Beach days. Ortona. Olive oil and montepulciano. The view of the mountains and walks up the corso. We'll remember the climb to the third floor for Ms. Tozzi, Mr. Rovere, and Mr. Stephens's rooms. The bonds made in Mr. Capone, Ms. Verratti, Ms. De Bellis, and Mr. Simpson's classes. And Mr. Smith's life lessons in the morning after having a cappuccino and fresh orange juice.





Goodbye CCI 2012. Hope to see you all again soon.
