San Gimignano

I can't believe I have been here for a week and time keeps moving faster.  I finally ventured outside of Florence, and visited 2 cities, San Gimignano and Siena.  I wished I had a weekend to explore both cities, but nevertheless, I did have a great time and met a couple of new people from my school.  Memorable moments of San Gimignano consisted of tiny streets, steep hills and amazing views of the vineyards near by.  Also, Gothic architecture that transports you back in time is not bad either.  As for Siena, the Duamo is breathtaking and the Piazza is a wonderful place to relax and people watch.
