Beautiful Sunday!!

Wow! Today is absolutely amazing!! The sun is shining, it is warming up and I got to sleep in for the first time in Italy!!
Beth and I had a great weekend in Sorrento and Capri (don't worry I will post a full account of the weekend-good and bad- tomorrow when I have more time!) The weather held out for us there and we had a great time! We just had a crazy time getting home...but we made it safe and sound, don't worry Mom and Dad! haha
Today has just been so great because after we slept in, we got up, cleaned up, did some laundry, went to the grocery store and then have just been strolling through Florence window shopping and eating gelato. I told Beth that I just was so content this afternoon! I was completely relaxed, didnt have anywhere to be and knew exactly where I was! I have been kinda overwhelmed with this whole experience and living in a new city, but today I finally was 100% comfortable and completely felt like a local! I didnt even have to think about using a map! And I totally was getting annoyed by the tourists...I just am really happy and loving this place! I am really thankful that I am here and after a crazy weekend, I am glad I had the time to just breathe and take it all in!
OK, I am going to go because I am cooking dinner tonight!! Homemade tomato sauce and pasta with bread and yummy olive oil!! Homemade! haha I know how to make a homemade tomato sauce!!
Ciao!
