Scavenger Hunt

today was, again, exhausting. one of the other classes had a scavenger hunt and we were assigned to one of their groups. i was in a group with mary kyle, lindsey, and i think that is all who you would know. but we had to search for things around florence. it was really cool. we couldnt go into some of the church museums because you couldnt wear shorts or even skirts above the knees. but we still got to do a lot. we were in one of the piazza's (a big square, usually infront of a large important building.) and this guy was selling paintings on the streets, which is illegal. and all of a sudden we saw him take off then we saw about 3 police chasing after him. he started running but realized he was surround by police so he started running toward us. but then the police cut him off and took him down. instead of using handcuffs, they put him on the ground and one of the police officers put his (the police's) legs around his neck, i will get pictures up eventually (hopefully) and i got a good pic of it. for dinner we had reservations at a small restaurant. i got veal with a creme. it was really good. that was basically my day. tomorrow we are going to the scandicci saturday market, help do some work at the church, then go watch the florence american football team play rome. it should be a pretty full day.
