...we made it! we're not sure what day it is or what time it is...but we're here and ready for adventure. that may be overestimating it...right now we're ready for sleep!
i feel pretty incompetent that i don't know italian. i can't even blame it on the jetlag...but let's just hopei learn the important stuff quickly. luckily we live with some women that seem very, very nice. we've met one from brazil and one from austria, both here to study italian in siena. thank goodness they know a little english, too! i'll count the number of stairs that we climb to get to our apartment. it's pretty ridiculous, but the view is worth it, i'd say. we'll see what i think after a week or so of climbing them!
...ok it's officially 111 steps. good times. but window pics are soon to come. jenna, em, caroline and i just spent 20 minutes moving from window to window taking pictures as the sun is setting. and for the record...gelato is amazing. a had strawberry and chocolate in a cone. the flavor is just incredibly intense. it could not get any more distinct!
one pretty big dillema: we have no idea how to unlock our front door. we tried and tried (and then i videotaped more trying...hoping we can laugh about this later)...until we knocked on our neighbor's door for help. with one swift flick of his wrist, a pull and a push, BAM. door open. then i tried again. no dice.
