Sunday…I woke, to a empty room and ran up the hill to the fruit market and then walked through the town and sat in the park over looking to valley of CF with the town behind me. It was a great way to begin the day. After that I return home to revise the dumb paper and catch up on emails. At 1030 I met everyone else down stairs were we learned the train strike was still happening, we were wanting to go to Arezzo to the Antique market they only have the first Sunday of every month…but weren’t sure that was going to happen. We decide to take a chance and walk down to the train station and see if a train was coming/ wait it out. We got soooo lucky, the 11:24 trains happen to actually be running and we ran to jump on and made our way to Arezzo. It was amazing to see this little city transform from the quite little city on Friday to a place packet with tents and treasures on every street corner. They have everything you could have imagined...letters and jewelry, furniture real and fake everything. Ha. I didn’t make any purchases…it wasn’t a flea market so things were still pretty pricy but it was great to see. We all met back at the bus stop to get home, after going into the pitch black supper market (it closes at 1 and opens at 3, our bus was at 315…so we raced in right as they were opening back up, haha). After a short bus ride home, were I listened to my ipod for the first time since I left…weird it brought a homey comfort feeling to me that I’ve been needed. Once home we all attempted to put the final touches on our papers and waste time until dinner…again I was starving. But now im full…caught up on my blog, emails and work and ready for the week ahead. Crazy to think I’ve been here over a week…it will be interesting to see how things grow and change over the next few weeks. I already fill so comfortable here, this is my home, I can get what I need and go anywhere. It’s so amazing. Well gunna go read for fun finally!!
Ciao
