If thou remember'st not the slightest folly
That ever love did make thee run into,
Thou hast not loved.
Just chilling in the lobby of Ostello Archi Rossi in Florence. If you follow the link of the day you can see where I was sitting. If you look at it in the next 10 or 15 minutes you might even see me, but seeing how it's 7 am in Toronto I doubt that anyone will.
Rented a vespa scooter yesterday. Zoomed around Florence and the surrounding country side. It was great. This area is so disturbingly beautiful it's hard to describe.
After motoring around most of the day I met up with Chiara. I had met her in Amsterdam and we agreed we would meet up down here. She lives just outside the city.
I had a real Italian meal with a real Italian family. It was awkward though, I speak very little Italian and her family speaks no English, so she basically was translating everything I was saying.
After that we went to a local club in Florence. It was a cool place, for the locals. Not tourist-y at all. It was a cool night a good time was had by all.
They have a big screen tv and vcr here with tons of movies. Ended up watching Taxi Driver. Quite a film. I had never seen it before and had some time to waste while waiting for the train. Well worth watching if you haven't seen it.
Hmmm... what else is new.... I'm going to Rome today... that should be cool hehe.
I suppose that is it. Loving it over here, but looking forward to coming home.
