Domestic day
No pictures today -- it was rainy and gray, and you shouldn't take pictures of Florence on a day like today. So I did some work at school in the morning (after a whole day of work yesterday), and my class seems to be going really well so far. Then I started on domestic.
Some shopping for the apartment. Walked all over. Got a cell phone for Beth to use while here and made us "friends" of the Uffizi museum (so we get in free to lots of cool places).
Did some laundry.
Worked a lot on the kitchen -- just a little bit of grease left over from previous residents. The apartment people fixed all the things that I found (they are really nice people) and I fixed a couple of windows that rattled when the buses went by.
I found two new gelato places for Alli to try. The one is a place that Palazzo Rucellai takes students to learn about making gelato. Both are pretty close to the apartment, so I think lots of gelato will be eaten this summer. Had lunch at the Oil Shoppe again -- so far I've had #3 and #5. I figure to keep eating down the list until I find my favorite (3 was better than 5).
The internet place is pretty convenient and so I can work at school or here.
A friend from church arrives in town tomorrow afternoon for a short visit and so we'll be out seeing the sights and I will probably have lots of pictures to post.
