Picture of the Day-Day 2

Ciao! Obviously one picture a day is not going to work out. I can't pick one good thing each day because so much happens! I guess thats better for all of you. And by all of you I'm pretty sure thats no one since no one reads this.

 On thursday's I have lacrosse practice. The picture on the left is of some of the girls on the team. Fra on the left was a little tired so she is sitting. That would definitely never fly on my teams at home! They are so much fun and I love going to practice. So the picture on the right was also taken at practice. We practice in the gym of a local church and one of the balls bounced right into the bathroom and into the toilet. I was surprised to hear this but upon investigation I realized why it was so easy for the ball just to "roll in". Yes, that toilet is part of the ground. Because the girls dont have many lacrosse balls to begin with we couldnt leave it in there. One of the girls had to fish it out with a bag. Imagine one of those doggy poop bags. Thats how it was done. Gross. But either way, it was a great story and a new experience!

 Yay! The tree is going up at the duomo. They are putting it up very oddly though. They brought the trunk of the tree in and then they attach the branches on one by one. Very weird but I dont know any other way they would do it.

After class today I didnt want to go home so I decided to go do some cultural things. I heard about this church that is near the duomo so I decided to go check it out. All of the walls are made of skulls and bones. I'm not sure if you can tell in the pictures but it's super creepy. I'm glad I saw it. It's unlike any church I've ever seen. I stumbled upon it while I was searching for something online and I knew I had to see it in person.

I recently created a Milano bucket list. I only have one month left in Milano and I want to see as much as I can. I will be broke pretty soon so I will be staying home the next few weekends. I'm off to Alicante, Spain tomorrow to visit some friends. My friend Erin is studying there and Sarah from Santa Clara is meeting us there! I can't wait to see them!

Since I wont be here the next few days I will update my picture(s) of the day on Sunday night or Monday!

Dopo!
