Five weeks down, less than three to go! It's hard to believe how quickly time is going. It seems like only yesterday I was on a tour with Aubree and Gabby beig led around the Bourghesi gardens. It has actually been a week!
So many things have happened since my last blog I don't even know where to begin! Last week we had an American style thanksgiving dinner! I look forward to this time of year every year but, this year I could not get I out of my mind. I has been well over a moth since I have had American food and I felt like I could have put the entire table of food in me! Dinner was delicious!
With a long weekend ahead of us, I helped henna pack for London and watched my other fellow students pack for trips into Rome, Dublin, and Spain. I haven't been feeling the greatest again and was looking forward to a restful
weekend with Emily Cramer.
Friday we went to Albano to make a few purchases and ended up taking the wrong train home... Mike had to pick us up an hour away, in another province in the town of Cori. Although the journey was long and ruined all hopes of me beig in Bed before 10 pm I can't say I regret the experience. In The Italians book, Barzini discussed how you can not learn Italy through a classroom or textbook. You have to experience it to fully understand it ! I can't agree more with him. I believe I learned more being lost in Cori than I have been the entire time I have been here! It was a night I will never forget !
Ciao Katie,
ReplyDeleteThanks for pulling in the readings. The blog is a little short. Remember they should be 4-5 paragraphs long. Thanks.
