Sorry everyone it has been way too long since my last blog. My camera is freaking out so pictures will be added shortly but a few weekends ago Bowdoin basically took over Siena. I was visited on the weekend before my midterms (perfect timing of course) by DJ, his brother and dad, Chris, Q and Bobby who were all on their spring break. I had to act as tour guide so I took them all over Siena doing the classic touristy things such as climbing the tower to get the best view of the Tuscan countryside you will ever get, touring the Duomo and seeing the soccer stadium. Funny enough, as we were walking up to the Duomo entrance I see Ryan Brodovsky, who was in my high school class of 28, walking out! Talk about a clashing of my three worlds: Country Day, Bowdoin and Siena - very strange feeling. Later that night I took the Bowdoin crew to aperitivi (open buffet of finger food with a 3 euro glass of wine) then to our favorite night spot, Gallery where they got a feel for an Italian discoteca and Sienese night life. The next day we just relaxed in Siena grabbing paninis and wine and stretching out to do some fantastic people watching on the campo. It was great to have a little taste of home for the weekend!
