Update/Pictures!

So we started class yesterday - and I really like it (woooo!). All of my teachers keep asking if i know the meaning of Quattrini (que significo?) And i surprise them when i know that it means "little money." Class is kind of long - 6 hours a day. And we already have a test on thursday. I guess usually on this program they stay in florence for 3 weeks instead of 2 - so we're taking the 3 weeks worth of classes in 2 weeks. But oh well. I'm excited to get to rome.
Florence is really pretty! Today during our lunch break from classes Amanda and I got sandwiches from Gionnis (mozzarella, tomatoes, and pesto) and a bottle of white wine. We ate in this little piazza right outside our school where there are a bunch of doggies chasing pidgeons by a fountain. There's one woman who we've seen walking her dog everyday that looks like a giant Jessie...I'm going to talk to her tomorrow and find out what her dog is! And take a picture.
Tomorrow we have more class but afterwards we're going to Pisa. On friday we leave for Venice for the weekend, and next wednesday we're going to Siena and thursday Feisole.
I put up the pictures i've taken here but i haven't taken very many :( i'll be better about that i promise!!
Oh my favorite phrase i've learned so far - "ciao, cani!" (hi doggies)
