I can’t believe it is already Friday! Where are the weeks going? Yesterday, Casey and I went to Ferragamo’s shoe museum! We saw shoes that Ferragamo designed for Judy Garland and Audrey Heburn (they even had a video on Audrey’s shoes Kathryn!).

We started at Astor and made our way to the black and white party at Twice. After four hours of dancing, Casey and I decided it was time to find the secret bakery! Florence has seven secret bakeries that start baking their goods around 2ish in the morning so they will be able to distribute them fresh to cafes throughout the city. If you can find the bakery and knock on the door they will bring you chocolate deliciousness for only a euro! We sniffed out the baked goods and even escaped with a picture! Little did we know there is also one right around the corner from our apartment! |
The Secret Bakery!
As if we needed anymore chocolate after our late night secret bakery trip, Florence is holding a chocolate festival until the 13th so obviously we had to check it out… There was chocolate in the shape of almost anything you could imagine. Casey and I bought a delicious kebab with grapes, strawberries, and bananas covered in dark chocolate- yummm. We also bought our text books, and I am lovingggg their prices way more than the ones from the states. After a quick grocery trip to get some veggies, we headed home.
My program held a mandatory self defense lesson tonight in case we meant an attacker with “evil intentions” (as our self defense teacher liked to say). It was quite funny and I can definitely take down any attacker with my head/neck thrusts, elbow blows, and groin kicks… Nonetheless it has been an eventful weekend… and the weekend technically hasn’t even begun. We are taking it easy tonight and exploring Florence more tomorrow then traveling to Bologna on Sunday!
Ciao Bellas!
