On Saturday I woke up with a sore throat which we attributed to leaving the window open all night. We spent the morning at the beach in Riomaggiore. The Brittanys (there are two girls named Brittany) and I rented snorkling gear. It was amaing to see how many fish there were even right next to the shore. It was an amazing experience to see all the life under the sea. I even saw a jelly fish.
After the swimming we got some lunch. It consisted of a cone of deep fried seafood. squids, calamari, anchovies, and veggies. I only tried one anchovy which was actually not too bad. But it wasn't particularly appetizing since it still had all the skin and tail still there. The tentacles were probably my favorite part, even though it sounds a bit gross.
After lunch we tookthe train back to Siena. Again we had a bit of a tricky time getting there and we had another 5 hour ride. We did get there in one piece and our host mom cooked us up some dinner once we arrive
