rode the bus up to Firesole in the morning, a little suburb up above Florence... very fun to be able to give directions in the z-dimension... bus ride was intense, sweeping views of the city and countryside....
fun gelato for breakfast.... ha i had left that out? yes 3 stops for gelato on sunday, and monday... exquisite stuff... like ice cream but just the right amount lighter somehow... melts like bliss..... mmmmmmmmm hard to overstate how good it is. did like the gelato i got in florence better then rome's though.
ruins were confusing to get into, had an excellent time wandering and absorbing the stadium overlooking the vally, some roman baths and an etruscan temple... turned out i totally had the purposes switched, italian sight-labeling leaves much to your own interpretation... still fun. communication snafu and tony seemed to have disappeared, took the opportunity to really sink into the ruins while waiting, finally started walking down the hill...
