The school weeks go by quickly now, but Thursdays are always pretty long since I have 3 classes that are spaced out through the day from 9am-6pm. But, I was able to get more medicine and have a nice lunch that was something other than pasta and paninos! They had a chicken salad at a bar/restaurant near school that was delicious!

Did I tell you that a bike ran over my foot? I think I did..

This morning I got up early to go on a day trip with my Art History class to Siena and San Giminoigno. They are both beautiful towns! I wish we had more time to spend there and wander around. I'm sure I'll keep discovering new ones but I seriously think I had some of the best gelato Ive had in Siena. They had signs saying they are world famous too.

We got back to Piazza Savonarola around 7ish and Myra, Lauren and I enjoyed a great dinner at "Edi House" right across from school. Also, the waiter is very cute. I know you are all thinking...ohhh noo hear we go. But, quite honestly I have not been very impressed with the Italian men here and its been hard to make friends with locals...but Marco seems like he could lead us into meeting Italians so this could be a gold mine..we shall see. At least better than the creepy ones that say buennnnno sera or hiss at you like cats near the bars.

Well, I have to go now but I love you all!

Happy and congested from Firenze,
Buona notte! Laura
