Thursday

After class today I had the choice of going to Mantova for the afternoon – a bus, then train, then wander around looking at things I saw 4 years ago, then train and bus home - the option a dutiful person who takes full advantage of her opportunities would take – or potter sorting out a few more photos, go to the Post Office, go to the market place to buy a few souvenirs, idly wander past shops, sit at a table in a little side street having a drink watching the locals go past, look in toy shops for ideas, go through the literature to see what else to see on the last day - the choice of someone having a relaxing holiday. Guess what option I took?
