What a day for pictures! Sarah and I traversed Florence from 10:30 to 4:30 taking pictures.
We found the Paperback Exchange (“Anglo-American bookstore since 1979”) and I got my books for the Dante class. I’ll have to wait for the religion and Italian books till the first day of class.
We thoroughly enjoyed walking towards the mountains outside Florence. The area is much less touristy and the landscape is lovely! Perhaps we’ll find an apartment there second semester. We’d really like an apartment outside the city. We think we can find one for less than the rent we are paying now and with antiques rather than Ikea furniture.
On the walk back into town, we heard the most beautiful choir practicing inside the Episcopal church. Unfortunately, they were finished by the time we got to the door. We can’t wait to begin church shopping tomorrow!
