It's Sunday, everything except some cafes/supermarkets are closed, and its about to rain. Therefore, I am in the computer lab. I'm pretty sure my laptop has a virus, so I'm going to make an appointment with the IT person on campus and hash out this computer thing. I want to be able to skype.

My half weekend in Florence was great, but I'm glad it was only for two days. I was ready to come home at the end of it, mostly because I had no shower options at the hostel we stayed in. We took the Eurostar in, which I'm grateful for because my first Italian train experience was very nice and comfortable. It takes about an hour and a half to get to Florence from Rome on the Eurostar, and we got there around 11am on Friday. I'm glad it was a short trip for the following reasons:
1. All of us forgot phone chargers, and all our phones died.
2. No one brought shower stuff.
3. We forgot to look up EVERYTHING. Including where our hostel was.
4. It rained.
We managed to find the hostel without too many problems, had lunch at a restaurant by the train station that was delicious. I refused to eat a panino in Florence, only pasta. It was a good decision on my part, because I had the best meals. The wine! The wine we had at dinner was the best so far. I'm getting ahead of myself. The hostel was nice, for a hostel. It was clean, had a pool and a continental breakfast. It was close to the train station and the Duomo. It worked out very nicely. I was with two other girls (Kelsey and Sheeba) from St Johns and there were two guys staying in the same hostel (Ben and Eyal) so I felt completely safe, especially since the boys were on the same floor as us.
