Two more days.

Early morning walk to class: Sunrise on the Ponte Vecchio

I'm sorry that I haven't posted in a bit- The past few weeks have been a whirl-wind, and I decided it was better for me to be doing things in Florence rather than writing about things I had done. Time is of the essence at this point! In a couple hours, I will take my last exam and turn in my final paper and be done! That leaves this afternoon and tomorrow to finish up Christmas shopping, pack, see all the last minute things I have been wanting to see, hit all of my favorite spots, and really take in this city. I can't believe that I will be home the day after tomorrow. It is a strange but exciting feeling. I am really going to miss Firenze, though. It is really a lovely, wonderful place that I have come to know and love.

Meanwhile, Christmas has been happening in Florence. Big time. Lots of lights and lots of festivity!

Christmas lights on the Ponte Vecchio


Christmas Tree by the Duomo (complete with Fleur de Lis ornaments!)


Via dei Calzaioli--these lanterns are my favorite!


Next post will be state-side...!

Ciao ciao,
Grace
