today was an excellent day! after 29 days of rain (literally) the clouds broke and yesterday and today were beautifully clear. although i'm in bed with a box of tissues about to watch love acctually and nap in an attempt to rid my body of a yucky illness, i am loving life.
after all the rain, today was like a breath of fresh air. walking around in town, taking in all of the christmas decorations and the winter air, we all looked at the city in a new light. it's days like today that make me love this city.
view from the pier looking back at piazza unita'
we had a delicious picnic nel molo in front of piazza unita during the sunset, featuring vino rosso and fresh cheeses from a nearby tent and as lizzy's boyfriend, A, opened the wine he said, you know, it's really comforting to know that here in italy, even though no one will ever be on time to anything and nothing will be open when you want it to be, there will always be good food and wine that is easily accessible.
and that is so true.
beautiful sunset, beautiful people.
