Day 22

This trip is FLYING by...and even though we have been here for 4 weeks, we are still very much in denial that we are actually in Italy!

One thing we are not in denial about is rotation. It is starting to get EXTREMELY mundane and boring. We have exhausted all options when it comes to things to do..we have even resorted to cleaning out our
e-mail accounts..its pathetic. So nothing interesting happened today.

I have been checking the weather religiously while here, especially for the upcoming wkd since we will be taking another mini-vacay. So I KNEW for a FACT that today was supposed to be a gorgeous day. On our walk to rotation, however, it was looking a bit cloudy...we did not think anything of it.

When it came time to leave, we looked outside and realized we were in trouble. Not only was it raining, but also neither of us has umbrellas and it is an hour walk home. Oh and we were also starving. Sweet.
Thankfully, I wore a sheer scarf as part of my ensemble today, which transitioned into a lousy head shield for me and CC to wear at the same time. We looked like idiots, uncoordinated idiots who kept
running into each other and getting soaked anyways.  We decided today was not an ideal day to go to the market, so we grabbed a few veggies on the way home and the guy ended up giving us parsley and basil for free, oh and an extra zucchini. Okay? We also stop for an espresso and piece of pizza at my boyfriend's coffee bar. We finally make it home just as the rain started picking up again, kind of lucky.

So instead of going out we decided to preoccupy ourselves with other things, such as learning how to gangham style...we already looked like idiots once today, why not continue on. Right? We then decide we are starving and sautee some zucchini. Since we agreed that we cannot taste the garlic when we cook, CC decided to cut up 4 cloves for our 3 zucchinis...you'd think it would be strong...it wasn't, what's wrong with this garlic in Italy???
