What a weekend!

First of all...we're in love with Italy and don't want to leave. This weekend was a lot of fun and we got to visit some great places. First on Wednesday, we went with a group of people to Pisa to see the tower. That was fun but we were only there for a few hours.
On Friday we went on a field trip with school to San Gimignano where we visited some vineyards and got to do some wine tasting. It was a beautiful town and we definitely had a great time drinking wine and eating some delicious Italian food.
Yesterday we went with Luis and James to Cinque Terre which was one of the most amazing places I have ever seen. Everyone needs to go there when they get a chance. We went hiking there for five hours which was tiring yet amazing. We had dinner in the last of the five towns and then took a train back to Pisa where we were supposed to get on a train to Firenze. Unfortunately we didn't make it to the last train to Firenze because it was late so we ended up having to take a bus back to Firenze. We got here at 3:15 this morning and now have to do homework.
So it was a great weekend overall but now it's time for school again. Check out the pictures on my picasa website.
Hope to hear from you all soon. Feel free to comment on the pictures.
