Today we got to sleep in and then go to the home of one of the host moms Carla is friends with and had the biggest lunch i've ever had. After that we all started the trek up to Fiesole (it was a group of 8 kids and 4 host moms.) We really had no idea what to expect - but soon we found out it was all steep uphill with few flat breaks, and about 2 hours just going up. It was pretty intense, but beautiful all the way which took our minds off the hiking. At the top there was a cool market with a bunch of different booths, and by the time we were done looking, we were able to catch the sunset from the top. Unfortunately that meant walking back down the steep path in the dark, but it was worth it. We rested a little when we got home and then a couple girls and their host mom came over for dinner - another 5 course meal and Carla was quite entertaining (she was wearing an all pink velour suit, so we played the pink panther theme song while she pranced around.) It was an amazing day!
