Headed out to class around 10:30 and dropped off some shirts to be laundered along with some dry cleaning. I also stopped by the hardware store near Sant’Ambrosio and bought a little clock for the kitchen and wrist watch (I forgot to bring one) with a total for the two of €20.

After our 11-1 class Parola said there would be a one-hour meeting at 2pm to learn Italian hand and arm expressions – how fun and funny. I went for lunch at a simple sandwich place on Piazza Santa Croce, then back to learn the expressions. There were photos of 20 hand/arm expressions (link below) and then a page to match the expression to a statement, e.g., what expression goes with che bello?

At 3pm I headed back to the apartment after buying a few things at the nearby small supermarket, Carrefore, and also got something at the pharmacy – all to be ready for my other Italian lesson at 4pm today and then client meeting at 7pm. It was warm today in Firenze, about 80°, and I even had the A/C on in the apartment for a bit – it’s the top floor and can get warm.
