So there are a lot of random details I would probably have added to Mike's posts, being a girl and all... But I will just focus on my blog for the night and enjoy the personal additives I will include when talking to all back in the states.
Siena... The most gorgeous Duomo ever. Mind you, I have seen a few over the years, but I would recommend anybody coming to Italy to stop and see the Duomo... Kind of a funny note that as Mike noted in Florence you have to cover your shoulders as you enter any church in Italy (I assume)... Well I had a blonde moment in florence and wore a tank top... Big mistake... A walk back to our hotel was in order... In Siena... They give you something to cover your shoulders with and all I could think about was the diffence between Siena and Florence!
Ok now details... Sitting in then square last night was amazing. You spend around $80 for a 3 hour meal and people watching extravaganza... Totally worth it!
Today included a handful of historical sites, me realizing we only have a couple more days in Italy, a siesta :), and a recommended dinner via trip advisor. So, the dinner... It was decent. Maybe I have high standards, but I will say it took them 20 min to bring us the bill after asking and most know how I get:). So let's just say I was a little excited when our wine ended up being 15 euro less than planned.
So I am writing a lot and will stop. Tomorrow of to San Gimignano for wine and food pairing, which I am very excited for!
As mentioned before, if you want anything in Italy, let me know!
Lots of love!
Jess
YAY!!! So glad to hear it from a girl's perspective-- though Mike has been doing an A+ job!
