Cameron's Trip to Italy

Cameron just got back from Italy where he spent 9 days doing research for his MBA. Here are some of the highlights...(Cameron added the captions since I didn't get to go...)

Piazza del Duomo

Some Nuns on top of the Cathedral

A long time ago the royal family went to Egypt and brought back some mummies
