Yeah, we hung out. Thanks, Duquesne University/Villanova/University of St. Thomas/John Cabot University. And whoever catered. : )

In other news, I am back in Florence. More specifically, back in Settignano, at Villa Morghen, where I spent some of the most beautiful months of my life and a place which will always remain very dear to me. Only for the weekend. But it promises to be a glorious one. I'm traveling with wonderful people, and I have the opportunity to spend time with another very dear old friend. Not least significantly, I'm giving my poor lungs a long-weekend break from Rome's less-than-desirable air quality. Also, the food is incredible. Naturally. Trains are fun. ALSO Roma Termini sells wine in the form of juice boxes. Whaaaaaa...?!?!!!
More to come later. This weekend brings the Uffizi, Michaelangelo's David, exploring Florence and Settignano, a day trip to San Galgano and San Giminagno, and of course Brunelleschi's masterpiece. I also want to catch up on what's gone down in Roma recently (cooking class!!!) and share a few reflections from our program trip to Assisi a few weeks ago. But for now, we're engrossed in the final episode of season four of Dexter as we recover from a long day of travel. Pace.
