the Days are Just Packed

Near the end of the day yesterday we went to St. Croce to see some famous tombs, but I spent most of the time looking up. The ceilings were painted with great detail and the walls were, too. Mostly I was looking at the huge stained glass windows. The entire open space was gigantic.





Yesterday was pretty packed. We also went to see a replica of the David. Today we saw the actual David. Jared, Valerie, and I stopped to do some sketches of it. A group gathered around to watch Jared, an American woman stopped to tell me she liked mine, and Val's had abs like a Ninja Turtle.

The first day here I didn't get a chance to post pictures, but we saw Marilynn's long-lost Italian sister.
