I loved these chairs! I want some (they were just at some cafe on the street)
view from the top of the Duomo
Blowing kisses from the Piti Palace. That is one giant kiss!
These little trucks are my favorite! They're tiny little 3-wheelers and they're everywhere! haha
my favorite sunglasses...dead
Today Manda and I went running again but we woke up pretty late so it was hot and there were tons of people and cars everywhere. It was our free day so we went with a big group of us to the Piti Palace which is where the Medici family (pretty much royalty) lived. They’ve turned it into a museum and there’s tons of famous art there and we also got to go through the royal apartments. It was SO cool! On the way there we stopped and bought some paintings from an artist on the street. He was amazing and had a really unique style that we all loved. It took awhile but it was fun. We stopped at a grocery store to grab a bite to eat for lunch and then we went back to the whole to take a quick rest. I took my 15 minute power nap and was good to go again. A couple of us went and climbed to the top of the Duomo (the cathedral) and it was a gazillion stairs to the top through crazy slanting passageways. The view was breathtaking at the top though so it was worth it. We just shopped around after that but everything started closing down. I was so sad! My sunglasses broke somehow right after the Duomo so I was madly searching for a new pair to buy before they were all packed up. Haha. I feel like I need a whole other day here to do the shopping that I want to and see everything. I will miss it! When we got back to the hall we all had a party in Darrin’s (one of our instructors) family’s room and they fed us tons of food. I love them! Then we went out for a gelato at GROM (the best gelateria ever!) before we went to bed and it was delicious. I really really don’t want to leave tomorrow, but I’m sure Venice will be great as well.
