Well, Happy Friday everyone!! This week has sadly flown by too quickly!
Yesterday was a fantastic day, it was so nice out! So Nikki and I woke up yesterday and I went and did the Spartacus workout, paying for it this morning. Walking Siena today, I will be as sore as I was last time. Haha!
But then we walked over to the other side of the river. Alexa had climbed the steps to the Piazza Michelangelo not too long ago and she said it was gorgeous. So that’s what we did. It was a long way up and it was super hot out. But we finally made it to the top and the view was even more spectacular than the view from my balcony! Haha. If I get adventurous one day, I would LOVE to take my computer up there and skype people to show them the view!! It would be worth it for sure! The view was incredible, we could practically see everything!! I got some awesome photos I cannot wait to put on facebook! We have really lucked out with the fantastic weather this week, that is for sure!! So then we sat on the steps for quite a bit and chatted and just enjoyed the view. Hopefully I got some kind of tan?! Haha. There was a big group of students next to us all drinking wine and just hanging out, def. a good idea to share with my friends when they return!! Haha!
So then we left and walked around for a bit on the other side of the river and stopped and Nik got this puff pastry thing filled with apple that was sooo good! I love puff pastry! Then we decided that those students had the right idea and came back and sat on my balcony for a bit before going to dinner and just drank wine and listened to music! It was so much fun. I am going to love this balcony now that it is getting warmer out! Hopefully it stays this way!
Then we went to Tiajuana’s for Mexican! I miss Qdoba. I finally got to try these quesadillas everyone keeps getting that were so good and of course the peach margaritas were absolutely delicious!!
Then we came back and just hung out for a bit before bed!
Today we are going to go to Siena and do some shopping! I know I have already been before, but it’s a good shopping place since Nik has money to spend and plus it’s just a pretty city. So I am excited!
Other than all of this,
Yes I know most of you have seen my latest facebook status. Well both, the one about Ameristar sending me e-mails all the time, making me think when I get home-- I should win big. Let’s hope it happens. Everyone knows I’ll need it!! Haha
Other status being yes I am homesick, or AmericaSick if that’s what you want to call it. I love having Nikki here and I don’t want her to leave but I keep feeling like I will be going home with her tomorrow morning! But all in all, I really am not ready to come home yet! I still have so much to do before I leave! Dublin next weekend, which everyone knows I am more than excited about, same for Sicily in 2. And the Lerici and Portofino the next, Cinque Terre and MTV Concert the next and Easter the next, and then Briana and I have amazing plans for our last few nights here.
Um……I know I have failed to mention this one. Apparently the word around town is----- Mtv is going to have a huge concert coming in April with possibly Lady Gaga, Ke$ha, and Rihanna among others………….Um…………Seeing Lady Gaga in Florence? Yes I am staying. Haha! We are already joking about camping the night before. We are getting great seats!
SO I still have a lot to do before I leave that I am excited about. But everyone just better know, yes I miss everyone and America. Honestly I was telling Nikki yesterday, I don’t think a lot of people realize how great Americans have it and how easy life is in America. Not to say I hate it here, cause I love it here. But I’m just saying I can name a whole list of things that are so much easier (CHEAPER!!) in America. Haha! Plus food wise, I can only take so much pizza and pasta. Someone give me BBQ now. I swear when we were walking last night, there a BBQ scent coming from somewhere and I wanted to cry. Haha While most of my friends will be snacking on chips in the Summer, I will be the one walking around with sliced meat from the deli, dipping the meat in KC Masterpiece. Not kidding. Haha!
But anyways.. Hope everyone has a great Friday today!
