10 January, 1999

Today, we took a walking tour around Florence which was great.  We visited some of the big attractions, such as the "Duomo" and looked at some lesser known architectural techniques of other buildings.  We got a pack of cheap postcards, which turned out to be pretty bad.   It was very cold and drizzled all day long.
We hiked up a mountain to the Basilica di San Miniato del Monte.  It was a beautiful church and Rina and I went to Mass in the basement which was celebrated in Latin Gregorian chant.  Overall, another great day.  Tomorrow starts classes.

Move on to the next day, 11 January, 1999.
