05/08/2007: the beach

yesterday we went to the beach at castiligione (i think its spelled that way). and i spent the majority of the day, like 5 hours, out on the beach, frying in the sun. which was nice at the time but now today i am very burnt. but hopefully it will make for a good tan afterward and i wont look so funny being terribly white. not much else has been going on over here. we have just been in and around siena. saturday we had a free day and it was really nice to just relax (take it easy...) and have some time to do what i wanted. i really needed tenis shoes, so i went and bought some vans. they are pretty sweato black and white and patterned. they are rather comfortable as well. today we are headed to vincenza with the architecture group from the uo. i think we are staying there for two days. and looking at architecture (obviously). well there isnt much else to report.
