we leave tomorrow morning at 630am for our week-long tuscany trip with school.
monday we are visiting volterra, home of the volturi. for those who aren't twilight fans, this is the place where the vampires in charge live and new moon was filmed here. maybe ill bump in to edward? become a vampire? but besides volterra's cinematic fame, it's known for its alabaster production. after volterra is san gimignano where we will see some wine production and have a wine tasting. monday night ends in siena.
the filming of new moon in volterra
that's bella running toward edward
he's about to commit vampire suicide
tuesday we get the grand tour of siena and end up in florence. keep your fingers crossed that i find some steals at the leather market and ill keep my eyes peeled for some 5 euro pashminas in florence.
on friday morning, approximately 5am your time, i will be hopping on a plane to paris! ahhh paris!! words cant describe how excited i am to finally see this city. we plan on seeing it all so get ready for some serious posts. some highlights include: versailles!!!! (we're biting the bullet and riding a train an hour out to this amazing palace), the louvre (free on friday nights after 6pm!!), eiffel tower (duh), and notre dame.....
i am still debating whether or not i am taking my laptop. but in case i dont, you know where i am! and you'll be hearing plenty when i return to ariccia a week from now. ciao!
