today was the second Sunday we have been in Florence. We got up this morning and took the bus to church- but lo and behold it was locked and no one showed up (stake conference??). Shortly after we got there another couple joined us, they were from California- the OC. We all waited for a few minutes and then anther taxi showed up with yet more English speakers, three more. They asked how long we had been waiting and then got back in their taxi and left. The Kellers, Diane and Joe were their names, and our little family walked to the bus stop. An interesting little side note the bus stops are called fermatas here- for anyone who reads music that means a hold. Sooo the the bus does not stop it holds... ;-)
Anyway we all chatted and then took the bus to the city center where our new friends took another bus to their hotel and we walked home. We had leftover pasta from dinner last night. We had bought linked Tuscan sausage and I opened 4 links and made pasta sauce and cooked 4 links whole. Chris really liked them. I liked them better in the sauce than plain but they were good.
I thought i would share some photos of the applicances and the apt. the apt came with a washer-- it is great b/c we can just throw stuff in and didn't need to pack a months worth of cloths...
