Day 11: Monday
Week two of class already! Today we discussed Shakespeare’s Coriolanus, and I hatched the perfect Machiavellian idea for my paper due on Friday. I’ll save that for later. After class we went up to the Accent center desk where I found a brochure about the cat sanctuary at Argentina, aka all the cats that wander on the ruins are spayed or neutered and vaccinated, and you can pet them. Dylan and I are going to spend hours playing with the kitties! Then we tried to find this place to eat they recommended for us, but we couldn’t find it, but we ended up wandering through some really cool places. First, we found the market in Campo de’Fiori that had amazing-looking fruit, so I can’t wait to get back and eat some. They also had penis-shaped pasta! Then we wandered through the Jewish Ghetto, and it was not only a beautiful little area, but there was cute Jewish stuff and cute Jewish boys everywhere! We got to wander through three times because we were lost. I loved it! Finally we gave up on trying to find that restaurant decided to eat at a random place we found. I had ravioli with ricotta and spinach. Then we came back home for nap/siesta. We did that for many, many hours, until finally at 9pm we were hungry, so we made dinner, then we went down to the boys’ room to plan our Naples trip this weekend. We picked our train times, found a hostel, figured out how to get to Pompeii, and decided on what we want to see in Naples. We’re leaving early Saturday morning and coming back Sunday night. We just have to make it through the rest of the week…and this paper, which I am off to start planning.
