It rained today. Hard at times. But we never really got caught in it.

We had to hoof it to the south bank of the Arno early this morning for our pasta making class, a last minute and very welcome addition to our activities.

It was a nice group. A mother/daughter duo from Jersey, a couple from Northern Quebec, and two cousins from England (one from Suffolk; one from I-can’t-remember-where), plus us. Our instructor haled from Mexico but has lived in Florence for 14 years. Check out her serving technique, below.

Of course we got to eat what we made.

Then we went to the Duomo and I’m way too exhausted to post about that. Here are some random pix from last few days though.

A pleasant surprise!
