Assisi.

Hello All. I just got back about an hour ago from the field trip to Assisi. It was a small,neat and extremely pretty place. The trip was just one night but that was fine because i walked the length of the entire town in just over an hour. I visited the church where Saint Francis spent most of his time. Inside the church is also his crypt and the hut he used to preach in before the church even existed. Its my understanding that they built the church around hishut. His hut was not as attractive in the day but it has been dressed up since. You are not supposed to snap pictures in the church or one of the workers will come and ask you to put your camera away. Well, i snuck just one picture of his hut with my phone and didn't get spotted! Anyways I am off for now. Its 5pm here and i still have a half day to go out and venture around. Tomorrow i will be going on a private trip to a beach city called Cinqua Terra. I am going with some people of my study abroad group, it just isnt a program sponsored event. Bye for now. CIAO :)
