... on internet and then back to the bar for more wine and tapas.<br><br>Sun 15 <br>Did some chores... yes we have some, we are not totaly void of resposibility. Went to the supermarket to stock up on food and went to an Aire d'service to empty Theo (our Thescott cassette toilet). Enough of that and we were back in the walls checking out the Antiques Market and eating Gelati... YUM!!<br>

... for the main course and was given one plate of cheese and one plate of spinach...hilarious. I had a gigantic veil roast like nothing I had ever seen, and fortunately it was delicious. We finished the meal with a chocolate covered panna cota, coffee, and endless dessert wine for Kate. They kept filling her glass because one older fella was the only one that could drop the check and he either took a nap, or was quite busy. The ...

It was our first full day without rain!! What a wonderful way to see the Pantheon, Colosseum, and kiss Rome goodbye. And we even made it to breakfast today...that hasn't happened since London. :) Check out our pitcher of steamed milk! I'll take that over half and half any day. <br><br>After seeing the closed Pantheon at night, and it's beautiful yet stark outer image, we didn't know what to expect once we walked through its huge iron doors. I ...

Just realized those not on facebook haven't seen pictures from Pisa and Florence. No long recap of Anthony and I's weekend in Tuscany, for obvious reasons. Also note that "Anthony and Alison's Great Adventure" was like taking a knife.<br><br>Love you guys! :)<br>

Rented an apartment in a villa which was at the top of a mountain (like most villas in Tuscany), however, our journey to the top was not on a paved road which made for some challenging driving. The villa was really nice with its own pool and great view over the countryside. The owners also provided fabulous meals in their other ...

... steps. Then you start the trail which takes you along wild olive trees. I thought some picnickers had left their olive pits in the dirt as I stopped to take a break but then I realized the pits were everywhere... they were coming from the trees above me! Cool! Halfway through the hike lies a little wine, caffe, and snack bar (with the same darn paninis, little rolls, stale croissants and foccacia sandwiches everyone has EVERYWHERE here in Italy ...

... have when they are first poured. The slower the better. Good tip, yeah? Anyways, school went on great until the end of my Italian class. 4:30 is when the class should have ended, and I was planning on going with a big group in CAPA over to the British Library on the Arno River. Tomasso, my teacher, asked me to hang behind, and he told me that he did not know for sure if I could get 102 credit for doing what I was doing and ...

... is so beautiful!! i took the best pictures i could through the train window. I want to go there for a week or so. It would be Grand. Anyways. On with Italy! We got to Florence at around 8:00 pm, and then we had to take a bus to the camping village we are staying at. So we hopped on the right bus, but Becky the Genius decided to hop off at the wrong stop (its really confusing... the map system makes absolutely no sense!!). But yes ...

... trip! One of Florences major draw cards and the basis for its kitchy souvenirs is of course the original of Michelangelos David. We queued up to see the sculpture and were pleased we did as it is much larger and has amazingly more intricate detail that we had thought. I took a photo, then found out they were forbidden when the security guards started to find the source of the flash. Florence has a huge ...
