Finally--the sun is out! I went out without my raincoat over my fleece this morning, and it's lovely... I slept until 10--I must have had a bug, still am a little achy, but don't think I had a fever... went to a bookstore, Paperback Exchange with all english books--what a strang thing to walk into a business and be greeted with a Hello instead of a buon giorno! I remember much more english speaking in the stores when I was here before--maybe since it's winter, and the tourists aren't so numerous, the shopkeepers tend to stick more to italian?
I had a wonderful cappuccino and brioche at a little bar where I'd gone a acouple days ago... delicious. I forgot my camera and my good map, so came back to the hotel to get them and to get on my computer and check the weather. The blue skies won't last long--it should be sunny on Wednesday when Trudy arrives, but after that it's rain and snow... I'll enjoy the sun while it lasts! Today I am going to take it easy--walk to the Santa Croce area, walk along the Arno, and later today go across the Arno to explore some more.
ciao, tutti!
