before we head off to beaune, france tomorrow morning, chris had a day off. so we hit up the arezzo antiques fair...it was huge! ALL the streets were covered in stalls and people were everywhere looking at a lot of really cool stuff. i got a super awesome skirt (not really an antique, but uniquely made by this nice italian man). but my favourite things we kept seeing were the old lock and keys...especially the keys. they looked like they came from another world. like it would open the wardrobe to narnia or something (yes, i'm lame, but they looked magical). no one wanted people take pictures of their merch so i can't show you how great they were but i'm sure you can imagine. it was a beautiful morning (35 degrees by noon) with not a cloud in the sky!
when we got back, we hung our laundry and headed out to perugia for the afternoon. that's the same place we went to see that crazy band. we thought it was a beautiful city at night, and it didn't disappoint in the day. busy streets with LOTS of sales in the stores. though he didn't buy anything, chris must've tried on 608 pairs of sunglasses! but we did get Grom, the best gelato in the world!
it was a very nice day out and about. and wait till you all see our tans! you won't even know what hit you!!!

we were told this place was arezzo's very best espresso. so i did it! I HAD MY FIRST COFFEE TODAY! well, it was a cappuccino. and with a little sugar it was actually pretty tasty.
