What is happening?

Jonathan is getting married to Ngoc. They have decided to do a destination wedding near Florence, Italy. This is happening May 18-22. They have a website link here. Here's how I understand their wedding plan:

Sunday, May 18: Arrival
Monday, May 19: Welcome Party
Tuesday, May 20: Wedding
Wednesday, May 21: ??? Farewell breakfast?
Thursday, May 22: Check-out Wednesday is ambiguous. I had communication with Grandma or Jonathan about when the farewell breakfast is, but I've lost that. Transportation to and from the airport in Florence is provided on Sunday and Thursday.

In addition to the wedding, we were discussing traveling to Sicily with Grandma. The tentative plan is 4 nights:

Thursday, May 22: Travel to Sicily
Friday, May 23: ???
Saturday, May 24: ???
Sunday, May 25: Travel to Rome from Sicily
(ROME) Monday, May 26: Travel to Home

That leaves travel things to iron out. We know that flying across the Atlantic is going to take a toll on Grandma, so ideally we don't do anything on those days. Or at least provide some recuperation time.
