wow such beautiful foto. my fam and i are also headed to italy soon. taking my sx-70 and film! by the way i lov your daughters shoes in the previous foto. i saw a pair similar to those on the internet a while back but, didn't buy them because I was unsure if they were ok to for a toddler boy. though the description said unisex. what do you think? anyone's opinion is appreciated!

hi valeria - actually that photo is of me about 30 years ago! but i think they would be adorable on a toddler boy!
