Italy's Finest

Doing the mini-grand tour here - venice and florence, and then to school.
Venice was spectacular. we skipped the major tourist traps and wandered around back alleys and had much more fun. I think, when I have free internet (this one's 1 euro for 15 min. bleah!!) I'll devote an entire post to it.
Florence is nice too, but hotter and much more expensive: all the muesums cost waaay too much. so we've been biking around and gazing at the river and the pretty houses.
And tomorrow I go to school for real. I can't belive this, maybe on, like, sep. 28th it'll sink in. oh well.
more later, the countdown's on for my internet.
