Our Internet has been touchy so I haven't been able to update our blog for a while, but now we are up and running.
We had a nice March - of course it was filled with lots soccer. This is the Fiorentina/Siena game - it was an exciting win!
We thought we finally found our apartment - it was on an olive grove, out of the city, up on a hill, unfortunately the road to the house was really dangerous to walk on, so we decided it was not the place for us.
This is a picture of the living room.
The bedroom.
And the horrible, claustrophobic kitchen.
J. by the Ponte Vecchio.
J. and I had quite the VIP night out in Florence.
The star player from the team asked if J. and I could go to supper with him because there was a rapper from Philadelphia in town. His name is Cassidy, we had never heard about him, but we did recognize one of his songs. He has a very shady past (as google will tell you) and my mom told me she didn't want me to hang out with Cassidy anymore... haha!
We went to a nice restaurant where we were all treated like superstars.
After supper (which finished at 11:30 pm) we went to the show where we were escorted through the packed crowd to the VIP section behind the stage. We had a really fun time at the show. After, Cassidy came to hang out with us.
J. treated him and his "crew" the next morning, they told us that anytime we are in New York we need to call them up, but we decided we were a little too afraid to do that... :o)
The Church of San Lorenzo
We found a movie theater that shows movies in English once a week.
It is such a pretty theater, this is the ceiling.
I, too, enjoy this blog:)
ReplyDeleteBut seriously, J's parents told me about hanging out with the rapper -- what a story! You two are certainly making memories!
