Hey, 

Uno. One. I haven't been able to get a phone card yet. Rolf (professor's husband) said that he would pick one up for me but I have't gotten it yet. We are always going here. Class goes from 9 to 7 and then by the time dinner and a shower are done I get on the computer for, maybe, 30 min. I am only on now because I woke up 30 min early so I could write here. Actually, though I kinda like getting up early so I may do this more often.

Due. Two. The food has been great. However, the bread here is really hard. It is like they baked it one day and then left it out to dry for another day before we eat it. Yesterday was great, though, because Rolf made bread in the wood-fired pizza oven and it was nice and soft and the flavor was great. Luckily, he made 4 loaves which left 2 for this morning. 

Tre. Three. Yesterday we went to Gubbio and look and learned about the K/T boundary which is the moment in history, seen in a rock layer, when the astroid hit the earth and ended up killing the dinos and practically everything else. Sandro's (our main professor and the one who lives here) lecture ended up being 3 hours long so we got back almost two hours late which meant that we were 55 minutes late for an Italian class that lasts usually slightly less than an hour. We still had the class but dinner was pushed back.

Cuarto. Four. It is beautiful here and I am really glad I decided to do this.

Hope all is well.
