First Day Trip (Part Three): Wrap-Up



Ciao Blog Buddies!

Today I am going to wrap up the first day trip to Lucca and Pisa, the whole trip started at 8:30am on a Saturday morning, and we returned around 6:30 pm. A lot of walking, bike riding and sightseeing this day. Victoria made a comment about how on all the Italia signs, the people are always running. And its true... you see the little stick figures running upstairs, downstairs, across the road (which makes sense, because you will be hit if you are not on sidewalks... lol ), but this was the first time, the stick figure was just nonchalantly making his way to the Leaning Tower. And it deserved attention!

First Video is the amphitheater of Lucca, which is a fully enclosed space of buildings. (Which you can see), its kinda cool to be standing inside of. I've noticed that I moved a bit faster than I probably should have, and it has the possibility of making you dizzy. So if you are prone to dizziness, maybe just take my word for it. haha ;)




Second Video is inside the baptistery building of Pisa, and it was built in such a way that allows vocal echoes? I forgot the term already! Any ways, its kinda cool. I turned my phone off right when everyone started clapping and shouting "Bravo, Bravo!".

Inside of here:




That is pretty much it for today! Friday's blog will feature the school I'm currently attending, and what it looks like through and through. I'm pretty stoked that so many people have taken interest, and I think next week I'll start producing some quality blogs with more information and attention to detail. lol.

I miss my familia and friends! And. CHIPOTLE. I'm not sure I can stress that enough. :P

Ciao for now!
