First full day is now history and what a day it's been! Visits to the Duomo and the fashion district (more on that in a later post).
A quick word about the technology and how frustrating it can be in Italy!. How can a country with a history some of the most technical advances be so backwards when it comes to simple things like Internet connections?! So very frustrating.
Last night I had an "ah-ha" moment. I was standing in front of the Duomo,an absolutely breath-taking masterpiece-I'm sure there was cutting edge technology when they created that but I digress, watching the soccer match on the big-screen t.v. between Brazil and South Africa, drinking a diet coke from McDondald's and texting my friend Sam in Brazil after they scored a goal. I thought, "is this what it means to be global or what?".
Hoping to post more tomorrow assuming we can get the Internet issue resolved :) Patience is the key.
