aaaaah

OKAY! I have been the worst blogger ever and it's midterms and as tonight's form of procrasitnation I shall create a speedy post that will quite insufficiently sum up the past forever weeeks during which I have not blogged. Actually lies. I am just putting pictures and not summing things up. TOO MUCH! okay. Here goes.

I might have already used this picture and actually.....it is not the one I meant to put. How sad. Oh well. This is the sunset over Fiesole. You can walk to Fiesole from Firenze and it is wonderful and beautiful and the greatest. This picture was many weeks ago...might have already talked tboua it but if not it is where I climbed up and picnicked with my friends and then watched the sunset. Greatest. Ever.

These are pigeons. Begin pigeons. In Siena. Which is gorgeous.

 

This is Siena's Duomo. Prette cool,

Oh the Places You'll Go...

Oh my. I was somehow under the impression that I had blogged more since I have been here...but...apparently not. Since I have last blogged oh so many things have happened.

I have been to:

Assisi

Ravenna 

Camaiore 

...twice...

So, I went to Camaiore for the first time not this past weekend but the previous one. It is about an hour and a half train ride away. When myself and my two friends, Eliza and Eve, got off the train we were slightly confused to find ourselves in what appeared to be...not the beach. To be honest, we did not do quite as much research about getting to our destination as would have been wise but....we followed the only road we could find and within seconds we found ourselves on a tiny...main street (though I don't know if I would go so far as to call it that...). The first thing we saw was a gelateria called "Piter Pan" with a cartoon picture of Peter Pan on it's sign. We went in, got some much needed coffee, and asked is the beach was nearby. The woman working at the store misinformed us, saying that  it was not in the vicinity (momentary panic). But, upon crossing the street we came to a Tabacchi wherein we were informed that the beach was a short bus ride away. Soon after we arrived on the beach and enjoyed a marvelous, sunny day with beach ahead of us and giant, beautiful mountains behind us. BUT...none of us had a camera. So we (semi-jokingly) decided that we would have to return the following weekend to document our new found beach destination.  

So, next weekend came and I arrived back in Camaiore, camera in hand, to doccument the wonderfulness. We stayed in a hotel with a room that had three tiny beds pushed together and a WONDERFUL little porch overlooking a piazza, the beach, and the mountains. I don't think it gets much better than that.
