Buongiorno e mi dispiace (I'm sorry) for the lack of posts! I had midterms and planning for fall break on last week, but I'm well resting and currently in Salzburg (pack your bags aunt dana - we're going to austria!) for the first half of my fall break trip :) It is absolutely AMAZING here but i have other trips to tell you about first!
Three weeks ago my parents came to visit me in Florence for a week, and then we headed out to Roma that weekend to see my friend from my last post! So here's my wonderful week with the parents!!
My dearest parents at a great restaurant in Mercato Centrale called "ZaZas"
This is my campus! My parents came to see the tour of Villa La Pietra, and then I made them walk up the dreaded Ullivi hill :)
Just a glimpse of the lovely gardens... this is where they used to hold plays!
Outside Villa La Pietra
At a wonderful dinner on the Arno with the Pontevecchio in the background!
The clock tower by the Uffizi is simply beautiful. I love Florence.
Mmm Mmmm Good :) The Land of Bruschetta!
I have cute parents :) (that's the Duomo in the background, no big deal)
And introducing the slightly less exciting italian city of Roma!
We had an absolutely WONDERFUL time in both Florence and Rome! We had long three hour dinners in little back alleyways off of charming piazzas, ate real meat (I'd pretty much been restricted to pasta since we college kids can't eat at nice restaurants every night!), and did all the tourist-y things I'd felt too italian to do for the past two months! it was amazing and joyous and fun and I can't wait to tell you all about the chocolate festival in Perugia and my wonderful fall break so far!!!
