Want to See Italy? Take Your Cup.

Posted on 26 August 2008 by Justin

I have a friend whose name is Jacob. Almost everyone he knows (except his family) calls him Cup. I know this is odd but he likes it and so, as a matter of fact, do I. (The fact that I had a significant part in his acquisition of this nickname certainly helps.) Cup’s name and the oddities involved with that aside, Cup will be in Italy around the My Good Friend Cup.2nd week in October. This is exciting as Cup is one of my most favorite people and the chance to travel with him is an unexpected pleasure. At this point, Natalie and I, will be traveling with Cup from the 11th to the 18th of October.

Cup’s father was a navy doctor and, as a result, Cup spent his childhood living in such boring places as Iceland, Italy, Japan, the moon, etc… As it turns out, Cup and his family still know people all over Italy so the three of us may have a chance to meet up with several of Cup’s acquainted. How cool is that?

    WOW That is awesome news and CUP needs to fly in so he can come to the castle on Thursday for the wedding. CUP, you are invited if you can:
    1. Get there Wed nite for dinner or by Thursday afternoon for trip to Cortona.
    2. Eat a whole lot of food from Wed night through Fri morning.
    3. Sleep in a beautiful villa overlooking a lake or stow away in one of the castle hiding places.
    4. Dance and talk Italian to Grandma Darin.
    5. Give Debbers a big hug and get to know Justin and Natalie’s family better.

    One question: Eggplant Parmisian or Fillet of Beef?

    Wow… thanks Debbie. As MUCH as I would love to be at the wedding, I recently purchased my plane ticket and it will not allow me to make the date. But I really appreciate the offer.

    Justin,
    I am super excited to go on this trip with you and Nat. We will have so much fun!
    Plane ticket: check.
    Good Friends: check.
    Excitement: check.
    This will be awwwwesome!

    Debbers,

    As always, your generosity is an inspiration to those around you.

    Cup,
    Natalie and I are very excited as well. You should grow your wildman beard for the occasion.
