I have this friend named Megan. We go way back.

| Silly freshmen. |
She's studying abroad in France, and last weekend she came to visit me on one of her many trips across Europe.
On Saturday we went to the market, and she bought some scarves.
Then she refused to take them off.
Later that day we went to Cortona to visit Luisa, who was the TA for our Italian class last semester. She took us to Passignano, a small town on the lake. It was such a beautiful day.
Solution: get in the water!
But just to make sure, we got gelato too.
Then Luisa drove us up to Cortona. Yes, you read that right. I actually got to ride in a car through the Tuscan countryside! It was the highlight of my day, and the views were indescribable.
The next day we relaxed and took a walk around Arezzo. We made friends with a cat, and I named him Bernard.
Spring was in the air. And in the ground, and on my mind... We saw flowers, Vespas, church bells. A carousel, and more gelato. We were on the verge of becoming a Julie Andrews musical.
Here's to far-flung fancies, frolicking, and friends. Another Tuscan adventure awaits!
