Today is
Amy’s Birthday! Class got rescheduled for 1:30 instead of 8:30 which I’m sure
she really appreciated. I got up and went on a run in the park, which runs
along the side of the mountain we are on. It was so beautiful!!! The rest of
the morning and afternoon consisted of more school. My group lost our debate, Amy’s won (yes, we
were on opposing teams).
Dinner was
good, the food at Tonino’s has definitely gotten much better since the first
night. Not totally sure what everything is I have been eating, but I has been
good. Especially the desserts! Today, they celebrated the birthdays we have has
since we’ve been here so Amy got her own special birthday dessert.
After dinner, we walked around town for a little bit and got to Piazza Republica in time to see the beginning of the festival for Santa Margherita (the patron Saint for Cortona). From what we were told, this festival has been going on since the 1300s. Then, went to go pack for Cinque Terre! We leave bright and early for Siena in the morning, then the 21 of us stay in Florence for a night before heading to Cinque Terre!
