Free Day

What a perfect day for a free day! The temperature was about 80 all day and delightfully sunny. Sarah and I went to the Duomo and surrounding shops in the Piazza del Duomo. It was much less crowded compared to yesterday, which is probably due to the lax attitude that Italians have about Sundays. A lot of the smaller shops don't open on Sundays, though the chain stores in the area we were at were open. Nothing was bought either today or yesterday while shopping, but it's still really fun to see all of the styles. We went into a 4 story store that had nothing but high end designers in it. The Tiffany & Co. was what drew us in initially. After the shopping, we came back to the apartment and then went out into the neighborhood to look for WiFi. It's been a little rough without it, even if I do only use it for an hour or so a day usually. We were stopping at restaurants and gelato shops along the main road asking if anyone had wifi and luckily we were able to connect at a gelato shop for a little while. The gelato we got was sooo good. I had Nutella for only 2€.  After we had our Internet fill, we went to the park outside of the apartment. It was fun! We laid out and enjoyed the abundance of dogs and kids running around. We've been writing in our journals since then and are headed out soon to a Chinese restaurant that has wifi (that's what we hear, at least). I don't think I'll buy any food there, though seeing as I have food I can cook at the apartment. Hopefully I can post this tonight! We're leaving for Venice bright and early tomorrow morning. 6:15!
