So I’m not just whinging…hottest ever in Italy. AJ has just told me so. Low overnight around 28-ish, massive humidity, just generally exhausting weather. Last 2 days at school. After school for 2 days in a row I’ve suffered the laundromat in order to keep up. School is good but I think it is time to stop now and admit a large degree of failure (and a minor degree of success). Just ate at home last night and downed an excessive number of Spritz’ in our efforts to keep cool (or oblivious). Today Norjie has been off on a boat cruise to the Cinque Terre, she’s not back yet but when she returns we are going to “Olive Oil” for The Last Supper!! Unfortunately I kind of got us stuck with one of my class mates who wanted to go to this restaurant and I felt I had to ask her to join us…hopefully it will work out OK. She is a woman from Hong Kong who is currently studying in New York so she will have something in common with Norjie.
We are all going to school like zombies, no-one is sleeping much. Nothing more to report…not much by way of activity at this end, it’s hard to bloody well move!!
Norjie leaves first thing in the morning and then I have a week of cleaning up, packing and preparing to farewell another city I’ve grown to love.
