Florence and a sip of Venice!

This week has been jam packed with classes so much so that I haven't even left the villa since my last post. Classes have been amazing and super difficult and I'll explain what we're working on on Monday, but for now, this morning... we leave for a day trip in Florence!

It will be great! We will all meet at the train station at 9:30am and the train leaves at 9:40am. Then we'll get to Florence around 10:40am and do a prepared walking tour they have for us of Santa Maria Novella, the Duomo, Baptistery, the Ospedale degli Innocenti, the Piazza della Signoria with the Palazzo Vecchio and the Uffizi. Then Sam, one of the staff will show us an awesome juggling store in Florence. We've all been practicing juggling - and I've been trying to get back my pin juggling skills.


After that, Rebecca and I will travel to Venice, stay the night in a hostel on the outskirts and meet some friends on the island in the morning! Spend the whole day and evening there - and be SURE to take a gondola trip at sunset! and Rebecca and I will stay one more night, leave at 1pm the next day and I make lasagna when we get back!

It will be one super busy but fun weekend. I'll tell you all about it soon!
