I'm thankful for days like today when I look at the schedule for the next month. This is going to fly by much faster than ever expected.
I went to class (fell asleep maybe only a little) all morning...planned our Sweden trip for about 2 and a half hours after...took a 2 hour nap...ate dinner and went into Scandicci.
Only to find out that everything was closed at 8pm and that it was very easy to walk around on the outdoor ice rink...even though it too was closed.
Exploring is always fun and we never seem to miss the interesting people; the man we met tonight in a bar (not a thing like an American bar) was a native Italian but lived in Dublin/England for 30 years until 1993 when he moved back and opened his store. He was eager to speak English to us and told us to come back any time so he could practice.
Oh, the places you will go...the people you will meet. It is all so true.
Tomorrow we must be up and on the bus by 8am to go to the Accademia to see (mainly) Michelangelo's David and prisoner statues. I'm most excited about seeing the Prisoners again...and the David too. I'll look for the finer details this time...instead of just being in awe.
I love tea time. Hot tea, sugar, and milk...mmm.
Ciao!

I love hot tea also, my Grandmother from England always gave me hot tea with sugar and milk when I was very small. Brought back memories.Can't wait to hear about your trip today.
The tea with grandmother was Mrs. B.
