The commodities of Italy


Bonjourno de Sienna! 

Mi chiamo Martin.

Hello from Sienna. My name is Martin.

These are just a few of the phrases that have been provided to us in our guide book.



After 26 straight hours of traveling with the gang

we arrived in Sienna to enjoy a plethora of commodities that Italy has to offer.




Coca-Cola light...it's not Diet Coke but it still does the trick for jet lag.



Gelato on a hot Italian day is superb.



San Domenico 
Here you can find a shrine to St. Katherine. 
Not just any shrine either...
Here you can find a leather covered skull from the deceased St. Katherine of Sienna as well as her mummified thumb. This gave a whole new meaning to "thumbs up".



Here, should you choose to spend 8 euro for some slight entertainment, you can climb 427 steps to the top of this tower. 

$2,300 to travel to Italy. 
8 euro to climb 427 steps and laugh at your friends having asthma attacks. 
Surviving the climb and climbing back down only to be hit by a Yaris...Priceless.



Bare shoulders are an embarrassment and an abomination to the church. 
Put on this huge piece of toilet paper, you temptress.


 
The gorgeous blue night skies.


The she-wolf. Shakira, anyone? I've been howling all day.



Sitting in the square people watching...and being obnoxious Americans. 


Checking out Italian men for potential husbands.

Yes, Italy is all it's cracked up to be.
