After last nights game, I have to celebrate (especially in case my parade is rained on soon). Padres: in 1st place for the wild card in the National League, on a 7-game winning streak, and at home. Rockies: 4.5 games back, on a 5-game winning streak, and on the road. Rockies were up 1-0 until the Padres hit a single homer in the 9th to tie it. Finally, in the 14th inning, the Rockies win it! Woohoo! Way to go, guys! Sunday update: this parade hasn't been rained on yet! Rockies swept the Padres in San Diego, winning 8 straight and moving within 1.5 games of the wild card-yippee!

Oh, there is sooo much to see in Italy... I don`t know where are you headed (which city) but in Rome, you need to see the Forum Romanum (the very old Rome) and the Victor Emanuel memorial (big, white building like). They are incredible! And of course, the Fontana of Trevi (fountain) and try some Italian pizza! It is the very best for sure! I hope you get to see Venice as well, it is truly beautiful and breathtaking! Florence is also great, so much to see there too! Statue of David, Medici Library and so on... OH, I feel like I am 16 yrs old again!
