Rain drops keep falling on my head

Saturday January 9, 2010

Yesterday the whole group went out for dinner and drinks. We ate at the Republic Centrale at this great decently priced restaurant. I got a tasty gnocchi al pesto and the house Chianti. We then went to this new bar called Amadeus where the bar owner kept offering free shots and awful 80s music. It was a blast—I really got to bond with the group and realized that we are going to have a wonderful time here.

We planned to meet today at the Duomo around noon to go shopping at the market. I was super excited because I got my blowdryer to work and took a nice hot shower. After two days of constantly wearing rain boots I decided that I would be bold and wear sperry’s and my fleece. What a dumb idea. Today was the day that we were outside the most and the rain demolished my freshly dried hair. My pants got soaked and my socks turned brown from the leather of my shoes. Whatever you do—always have rain gear for every day in Florence. It feels like it is always raining here!

Ciao
