Last night ended up being a lot of fun.  We walked to the reception which felt like forever to get to.  It was a sketchy walk so we got to see the bad parts of firenze. We all also decided to wear heels out like the Italian women do and because of that we could barely walk today. So many people showed up at the reception that we decided to get dinner somewhere since we couldn't move inside the reception.

After dinner we went to a bar crawl put on by the local bars surrounding the duomo.  It was a lot of fun and very americanized, except drinks are a lot more expensive than wine.  We got to meet some really cool people and found out that italians love kareoke even more than Americans do.

This afternoon my 4th roomate arrived from America because she was taking the MCATs back home.  We all went out for gelato for the first time and it was just as good as expected.

I went to billa (our grocery store) this afternoon and felt like a real Italian because i signed up for the savings card.  We cooked our first meal in florence tonight, spaghetti, and played Dean Martin while we cooked.

After that we walked over to ponte vecchio again.  Tiff and I keep joking about how we never like to walk anywhere at home but we literally walk all day here.

Tomorrow were gonna hit all the museums in Firenze.
