Back in Siena, once again!

Sunday, October 12th, 2008 | Uncategorized

We got back from Bologna last night, safe and sound!  It turned out to be a nice trip.  Just walking around the city is beautiful, with such a lingering historical touch.  There are covered archways in front of nearly every building, which must make it a nice place in the rain, but the weather was nice and warm for us.

I took pictures!  (Of course…)

By far, my favorite part of the trip was making our own pasta!  We made the dough, rolled it, cut it, and stuffed tortelloni, tortellini, tagliatli, and penne.  AMAAAAAZING!  Italy=Amazing food, and Bologna=the most amazing food in Italy… if that gives you an idea of the amazingness.

On Saturday we visited the Ferrari Museum in Maranello!!  We were all pretty exicted about that :-)  Our guided tour of the museum ended witht the NEW California Ferrari, so I was happy!  I also folded it up so I could fit it in my purse and sneak out!  I got some nice shots there too… Grandpa Jerry, you’ll have to expand my knowledge further than “old Ferrari” and “new Ferrari.”  I listened to our guide, but I couldn’t remember everything!!

Lauren and I bought our tickets to Greece, and we even found an Enlish travel guide to the Greek Isles while we were in Bologna (we searched every book store in Siena, with no such luck).  We are pretty set on Paros, where we plan to go horseback riding on the beach, visit a cave on a nearby island, and eat at a place called Happy Green Cows (a veggie resteraunt!!!).

I seemed to have forgotten to mention my trip to Paris!!!  (That’s right, Paros and Paris).  I’ll be spending our three day weekend at the end of November in Paris!!  A little group of us is going, it ought to be fun.

Alright, I’m off to make some dinner, and do some homework.

Love, Tricia

Ciao!

See what I'm up to, and view my photo albums by clicking Le Foto, above! I'll try to update often, but there's so much to do here in Siena. At least I think there is a lot to do, the local people my age think it's a fairly small and quiet city. We'll see!
