Hanging out at our house before dinner! 
Gelato seriously the bestice cream ever! bad news
for me!
Taking a break after all the walking.
Waiting on our bridge. Adria, Ashley and I. This is our main meeting place and it is amazing to see in the mornings!
Not to sure what he was doing but he liked us. He didnt talk he just stood there but when we would pass he would wave and give thumbs up. It reminded me of New Orleans... a little taste of home!
Notice the gypsy. She has the long skirt with the scarf wrapped around her face. They are everywhere! Showing you pictures of their children and trying to get money!
The Pensione. This was where the gelato festival was. On the left is the carousel and on the is the gelato booths.
The golden doors. These are not the orignal doors, those are on the other side of this building but these were built to face the front of the Duomo.
The Duomo! Absolutely beautiful. It is full of detail in the architecture on the outside. The statues and paintings and engravings are amazing. It makes you feel as if you are as small as an ant.
Dantes House. It was interesting to see and hear about but we didnt do the museum because it is only interesting if you big into Dante.
We went on a walking tour after our orientation meeting. They took us around town and made the circle around town between the piazzas(main squares). It was interesting to see how they all connect. The piazzas were the entrances into the city.
Santa Croce Church
Eating breakfast at my favorite Cafe Mario. They have amazing caffe latte and breakfast! We sit outside and have an amazing view of the Santa Croce Church.
All the vespas parked along the Arno. Seemed like there were hundreds of them!
