Italy so far........

OMG Wow. On my first night in Florence, i was terribly tired, but I still took in all the activity going on around me. Speeding Fiats, Vespas, and buses to large for the crowded streets, people walking in large groups, joking and feeling safe in well lit paths. The aged buildings surround the area, encapsulating you in the history, giving chills when you think of all the people who have lived inside their walls.

So every night there is a carnival that goes on in the plaza down our street. It was going when I arrived, and I could here it through out my apartment. The classical and carnival type music was so exciting, and after a cold shower and and a peak around my new home, I laid in bed, just content to be in a new place, so different than Santa Barbara.
