Anne and I went out and did a lot of walking. We started on a trip to the market, and got prosciutto and conquered some language barriers. That's always a wonderful feeling. Then we did some wandering and ran into the Valentino show at Ara Pacis. At first it was really exciting because we saw this museum building in the distance and it was the first modern building we've seen since we've arrived. It was like a time warp. So Ara Pacis was this Roman tomb/alter/human slaughter house or something - A big tomb with beautiful stone relief carvings and holes in the bottom to let the blood drain. And then Valentino.
Today I learned: la fetta = slice, as in prosciutto.
