Italia

I woke up around 8:15. We had breakfast at the same bakery as yesterday. Today I had a creme pastry. We decided to go to the ufizzi museum. First we bought cards that would give us free tickets and allow us to skip all lines. Then we saw the ufizzi which used to be the Medici’s privte collection. The museumishuge and filled with works by Botticelli, Da Vinci, and Michelangelo. It was great. We spent four hours there. Then we had cheap and yummy sandwiches (paninis) from a place joannas book recommended. All these places are so randomly located and don’t have any distinctive features so it would be impossible to find them on our own. After lunch we walked slowly back to the hostel stopping along the way to look at leather goods. We then got gelato. Today I had tiramisu and strawberry. I liked the strawberry better. The tiramisu was very sweet. I think they just froze the cream from them. Then we came back to the hostel and chilled/went on the Internet. I was reading my book and then ended up taking a nap. It was nice. For dinner we went to the store next doorand I got a salad and apricot ( which was very tart but I liked it), and plain yogurt (too bad I had no rice. Then we hung out in the room. We have two new roommates, one from china and one from Colombia. Ok now I’m goi g to sleep/read. Goodnight!!
