Well, Internet here’s pretty low-tech, and picture uploading apparently not really an option, so we’ll have to make do with words. <\/p>\n
We’ve been having a great time, walking everywhere until our feet and hips finally say “Basta!”. Then we return to our hotel room for a nap before heading our for dinner. Last night at a great pizza place we each pretty much killed our own bottle of wine … They’ve been great at our hotel, explaining things in English or Italian, as I’m able. They steered us to a great pen store at our request today and have been wonderful about restaurants, giving us our most memorable night out yet (which we’ll probably repeat for our last night here). Tomorrow we’ll go to the Accademia and maybe climb the Duomo (I read all about its execution in Brunelleschi’s Dome on the flight over and want to see the inside). Wednesday I think we’ll go to Siena (it’s Ognissanti or All’s Saint’s today, with reduced schedules). It’ll be good to leave the bustle for a bit — being a holiday today, it’s been incredibly hectic.<\/p>\n
