Venice, Italy


We spent the day in Venice today. It was so pretty. I really had no idea what to expect other than what I heard from the Mitch Hedberg joke Jacob sent me titled 'Venice' but it was very cool. I did get to ride in a gondela. It was super nice, very relaxing. I thought I would learn more about the city, but not really. And our gondelierre didn't sing to us, haha ah well.
So overall consensus is that I love Italy. Venice was nice, but I definitely loved Florence so much more. I plan to come back sometime. And I am going to learn Italian sometime, I will do it.
For the most part that we were here we had really good weather, 80 and sunny. Last night it was a little rainy, but not bad at all.
Morgan's family was SO nice. They treated us so well at the restaurant and they got us a really good deal at the hotel. Tomorrow for lunch will be the fourth time we ate at the restaurant, it was SO SO SO good. Amazing. And last night when we were there for dinner, her cousin's husband bought us a bottle of wine. I had both pizza and pasta and we had dessert. I took pictures of everything I ate so I will put them up when I get back.
Tomorrow we are actually going to academia to see the david and to do more shopping. I have never done more shopping in my life than I have done here. Tons of cool stuff.
Back to reality tomorrow, we have all been complaining about granada pretty much the whole time we've been here because we love Florence so much. We have a late night flight, then an overnight bus from Madrid to Granada. We get in at about 630 then my first class of the semester starts at 1230.,,
