iPhones are cool. I want one. Also, stocking sized, so... Am typing on aunt Harris, which makes blogging a bit tiring but I will persevere. Florence was gorgeous! And David is bigger than I remember (har) and just astounding. We found a market with organic local cheeses, ham, wine, olive oil and crafts, so I was in heaven for a bit. Aunt harri was super adventurous and tried the cheeses and hams, and bought a bottle of montipulciano wine. Was so proud. Aunt h and uncle c are proving to be wonderful travel partners, totally laid back and open. Uncle c basically just lopes along behind us and looks either amused, tranquil, or amazed depending on the situation, always completely composed and pleasant, and offering finely tuned 8-word-max observations when needed. Totally chill. Aunt harri is amazingly proficient with decifering and pronouncing Italian, showing great interest in, like, everything: signs, train station announcents, the behaviors of homeless people and their dogs, architecure. V. G. Is fun listening to her point out odds and ends that I fail to notice anymore. We left the apartment at 7:30 this morning and returned 8 hours later after an extremely full day of movement. Is 9 and they are both in bed, and I'm not far behind them. Will find Internet tomorrow and blog properly. Love.
