road trip .2

On sunday we had breakfast at the hostel (not bad actually) and then wandered around Florence to see the sights in daylight. Beautiful city. I will add some photos but i left my camera at school, like a numpty. We packed up or stuff ans headed off to siena, the hotel was amazing, just outside Siena in the hills but needed a car to get too and from. Utterly beautiful and very cheap out of season. Siena was nice but i think we were all at bit over tired after dancing the night away the night before. We took in the city and of course we sampled the ice cream. Beautiful place, very hilly- but nothing compared to San Gimigniano. Sammie had to work on Monday eve so early monday morning we dropped off at the train station and she caught the train back to reggio. Sil and I really wanted to see San Gimingnano so we set off just following the road signs. I drove from just outside Siena to a place we thought of S>G but turned out was a another little town nestled in the hills- with a complicated name, that i can never remember! we wandered around there for a bit and then decided to continue on toward our goal. S>G is amazing the views are spectacular, the town itself has many towers and produces some excellent wine (unfortuately wasted on the heathen likes of Sil and I) Again we sampled the ice cream (of course) and sat in the square in the warm sunshine as the weather was glorious- i even went a bit pink!
After two or three hours we thought we should make a move homeward. We hopped on the autostada (Sil at the helm) and got home about 6ish.
On Tuseday it was San Propero day the whole town was filled with Stalls sellling all kinds of amazing food and clothing, allsorts. I wandered around and then met up with Sil and Sammie Nick and giula joining us later. We ended up in La Trampa drinking pesquitos and dancing in our seats. Brilliant end to a great weekend!
