Weekend sunshine
So it appears it is springtime in Florence because I have been frolicking around wearing a tshirt and a skirt. It has been lovely. Brianna, Nicole and their friend Katie were here this weekend so it was fun to play tour guide for a bit. Another huge bonus is while showing them around I have accidentally stumbled upon the best Italian food since I have been here! An amazing restaurant that I am for definitely going back to and a for real sandwich shop that Italians were actually purchasing food in and not just tourists. It is difficult to find great Italian food (oddly enough) in this city because the average tourist is only here for 3 hours so many places are notorious for giving okay food at crazy prices and then just waiting for the next group of tourists to pour through the doors. Florence has a pretty hard shell that I am just now starting to crack through. Better late then never though, eh?

I'll try again and see if my fingers can hit keys that make sense. It is great to hear that somewhere on earth spring has come! It snowed in both Vancouver and Sammmamish this week-end. In Sammamish Saturday night people abandoned their cars on Sahalee Way . Fortunately, we were in Vancouver and only had to drive in 3 inches of hail/mush. A few minutes ago we had one of those weird PNW thunder snow bursts. It must be some kind of early April Fools joke. By the end of the week we are supposed to see the sun. Enjoy spring and Florence.
