Campus/First day of classes
So I haven't even been in Florence for a week yet, but classes have already started (I guess it is a STUDY abroad program). But that doesn't mean I can't have some fun with it! I've decided to drop my Modern Italy class, which really doesn't ...

The Beginning of Tuscany
We got into Florence only after minimal confusion in the Venice train station. Florence in Italian is Firenze, so this caused us to scratch our heads for a bit before we actually realized Firenze was our destination. Our pensione was very conviniently ...

Florence, Part I

Florence
Florence - what to say that will do it justice? We got there the first night and settled into the hotel. I immediately starting calling to make reservations for the Uffizi Museum, with no luck. Oh well....I can make it tomorrow because the trip is going ...
Arrivederci Roma...Hello Flo!
... So...(you knew it was coming)...Arrivederci Roma! The EuroStar (super duper fast bullet train per Rick Steves) carried us to Florence and gave us "bella" views of the Tuscan countryside. Arriving at the Santa Maria Novella train station, we grabbed a ...
