Well today was not much cooler, but we were lucky enough to have a slight breeze. Around 3 we went to the local gelateria and had some gelato, then did some sketching in the piazza. It was slightly annoying, cuz bugs kept on falling on us and in our paintings. I've found I do not enjoy this part of painting outside :)

Some of the local kids were having a balloon fight and I kept on hoping they would accidently hit me. So most of us wandered down to the pool in our villa to escape the heat. Some of the neighbors and kids were playing soccer in the pool, with blow up goals and everything. So Jeff, Theo and I joined in on the game. It was pretty interesting since we couldn't speak Italian and they couldn't really speak English, but we eventually figured out the rules. I had so much fun, and everyone was so nice. The kids were especially cute. I ended up being in the pool for a good couple hours, luckily it was shaded so I didn't get burned :)

It was a nice, lazy Italian day :)

Ciao
