Day 7: Rest Day

The group leader probably wouldn’t believe me, but I’m happy. I had a nice lunch at a sidewalk cafe. Then I went to a real Italian grocery store and got water and Diet Pepsi. It was fascinating, but I tried not to block the Italian people shopping. I also enjoyed people-watching. Now I want to take a nap. Couldn't sleep.

My other pair of glasses are in. I just called them and told them that I was in Italy, and they said that they’d hold them until I came back. The mammogram people called me about the ultrasound, but it’s Saturday so they won’t be there.

Strange, my first Italian teacher just friended me on Facebook (or at least I just saw the request). Synchronicity….

I looked at online pictures of the paintings in the gallery that I didn't go to today. I was mulling over getting posters of a few of them.

Had dinner at the same place as I had lunch because the food was really good. Now I'm in a food coma. I need to mostly pack because they are coming to collect our luggage at 7 AM. We leave at 8:45 to go to the train station for the train to Venice. Venice! My dreams will be fulfilled!
