Read this! Michelle Is Funny

I began documenting funny things that Michelle said during our farming experience, but at some point I stopped. I'm not sure why. As I was finishing up the blog, I found these two lighthearted stories, and I thought I would share them. Enjoy!

Man in the Emerald Cave in Conca del Marini to Michelle: Do you have a boyfriend?
Michelle: Yes I do.
Man: In America?
Michelle: Yes, he's in America.
Man: That's so far!
Michelle: But close to my heart. Puts hand over heart and smiles
Man: I don't believe you.
This was the same man who invited us out to drinks and then to take a dip in the cave. "Diamonds! Diamonds!" Ring a bell?

One evening at a festival in Canneli, we were waiting in line for dinner. We had already consumed two glasses of wine (1 euro/2 glasses!), and Michelle had a lot to say. Please use a Long Island accent while reading her words:

Michelle: Would you check out the eyebrows of the guy in front of us? They're better groomed than almost any woman's I know.
Guy in front of us turns around and looks at us with a half-smile.
Me: Michelle, he looked straight at us. I think he understands English.
Michelle: Even if he does, that's why I'm using the accent.
Effusive laughter from both me and Michelle, which goes on for about 30 seconds. Guy in front of us starts laughing as well.
Michelle: Oh my gosh! His friend is wearing a sweater with hamburgers on it. We should get a picture. Let's get Kayla and Stefan in there so that it's not awkward. Oh wait, I don't want his girlfriend to be jealous.
Not enough guts to ask for the photo. Guys in front of us end up ordering our dinner for us because, yes, they could understand English.
