In the city

This is now my second day in Orvieto! It has been real fun to explore the city and find out where things are and all that stuff. Of course, I was real tired yesterday after traveling, but I took a 3 hour nap and that helped a bunch. We had lunch provided for us at the study center, and dinner was provided by the staff at a restaurant called Zeppelin. We'll be taking cooking classes from the chef there. Classes haven't started yet, so it still feels kinda like vacation. Some classes will start tomorrow but Monday is when things start for real.

Now, about our apartment:
This is the greatest thing ever. It is enormous, it is beautiful, and it has its own private courtyard! As if that weren't enough, it is less than 2 minutes from the Study Center! It is literally on the other side of the Duomo (cathedral) from the Study Center. I want to show you my luxurious accomodations.

This is our living room

Our landlady is a really cool lady, doesn't speak any english, but she's super nice. (she made us a really good apple cake). Everone has been really nice, actually.
