Yesterday was the first day of my term abroad where I did not even take one picture... It scares me that not one photo worthy thing caught my eye as I walked through the city yesterday. It also might have been because we were in class from 10-4 and then I went right back home. I also brought the Canon Power Shot out because I didn't feel like carrying the larger Nikon out, so maybe I felt like the Canon Power Shot wasn't worthy of photographing the scenes I saw... Who knows!
For dinner last night, Simone the veterinarian returned to join us, bringing another bottle of wine. I guess we only drink wine at dinner when he brings it! He also brought along his precious daughter Giulia, who is 8 years old. For dinner we started off with a huge bowl of raw vegetables in the center of the table. Gabbriele showed us how to make a sauce that each of us made on our own in our own little bowls. We put salt, olive oil and aceta di mela (apple vinegar)... then all of our hands dove in towards the center of the table where the veggies were and we dipped them in our sauces until all the veggies were gone! Then we had a risotto with peas and squid, and a fish dish for the secondi. Healthiest and smallest proportion dinner I've had yet this term, SCORE!!
Anyways, today I was up early and ready too early for class. There is a mercato on Tuesdays in Caschine park which I was going to wake up very early to make it to before class, but the forecast said rain so I was discouraged. Now I'm just waiting for the bus and am getting excited because we are going to see a Calcio game tonight!
Off to Italian 10-12, then site visit at Santa Croce with Mauro! A Dopo!
