wandering le strade

i decided to get up early saturday morning and head to the city just to get lost down the streets. i had my morning cup of joe (hot chocolate) and brioche, and wandered around. the italians who own this small caffe know exactly what i order. scary. sweet people though. defintely patient with me and trying to use my italian skills.

i stumbled upon these cool, peaceful streets...

this pretty much solely pertains to my fajah....

allora, i happened to stumble upon this street towards the back of siena. im sure your thinking the same thing that i was thinking. it's just a standard door of pretty much nothing. oh, you're wrong. as i looked closer, i saw this...

what? a gold's gym in siena? the hours are 11AM -11PM. i was literally scared to go inside because it looked so run down on the outside. the door was locked so i couldnt get a good picture of the equiptment or anything, but im sure its not like what we are used to.
