SUNDAY 1 AUGUST 2010
Today is a lazy day. Everyone woke up later than we have since we arrived. One of our party has heat stroke. I look forward to sitting in the shade, sketching after the Duomo's flowing sculptures and marbled geometries. Its cream and green stone are absolutely gorgeous. I love the way its faces shift behind one another as you move around it. The scale of Florence's buildings grows more impressive daily.
TEE HEE! A FLORENTINE MAN JUST WALKED OUTSIDE THE APARTMENTS INTO A GARDEN FENCED BY MY STONE WALL PERCH. HE IS WEARING NOTHING BUT A BLACK SPEEDO AND A THIN LAYER OF LOTION. SO THIS IS HOW THEY GET SO BRONZE.
Yesterday, I bought the Best. Sunglasses. Ever! They're so cute! I probably look like a big dorky tourist, but I know I'm fabulous ;)
I ate my first suggestively-shaped pear today. I teased Judith for putting them in the shopping cart, but they are the most delicious pears I have ever tasted.
