Mostly a travel day today. I was quite sad to leave Florence. I really think I could do it for a year. My only fear would be if I'd ever leave, though, as far as fears go, that one's not too terrible.
Had tea during breakfast - can't wait to get home to real tea. Bagged just isn't as good anymore, but I felt a little more like a person.
After we'd all packed up into the [new] bus, we were off to Assisi ...or so we thought. Gabriella, or ..."tour manager," had a surprise for us: The Basilica of San Miniato al Monte. While the basilica itself was lovely - especially the glittering mosaic over what I assume is the main entrance - the view if Florence was absolutely incredible.
Then on to Assisi we went. We arrived around 2:00-ish in the afternoon...
Things I Am Sick Of:
*bug bites
*looking like I have the plague from the above mentioned bites
*interpersonal politics
*apparently being a bad person because I don't want to pay half of the €60 to switch to a room "with a view"
Whatever. I don't intend to spend that much time in this room anyway. I'm now rooming with Lyda. Casey and I apparently "made up," but I still don't appreciate being treated like a child and having choice removed from me.
Sigh. It's only times like this that I miss home. And Heather. I feel like I'm missing my other half.
Dinner was good, so was the rediculous gelato trip with Steph, Sammy Jo, Kelli, Mandy and Lyda.
Walking tour of Assisi tomorrow and bedtime for me.
