Seeing the Italian country side roll past invokes such food for thought. After a week of the minor, yet time consuming, stressors of midterms, a week of pre-planned traveling was gratefully welcomed. The good and bad things about these trips are the people. If there are annoying people, you have to try not to be annoyed all week. But if you have great people, even the worst of travels can be an adventure. We had our share of both on this trip. But, it just gives you experience dealing with all kinds of people and loving them where they're at whether you like them or not.
The mountains of Italy (the Apennines)are very much like the rolling hills of Virginia only more stately and secure in the fact that they have stood there with those exact same towns nestled in them for hundreds of years.
I also couldn't wait to get back to Florence where I knew I could drink the tap water. I was so tired of spending money just to stay hydrated. And that was my trip to Greece: Where everything tastes better with tatziki sauce. A Domani!
