Sunday June 16 Florence, Bologna and Lido di Jesolo

Hello to everyone!
We had a fantastic day.  The weather is perfecto, the students are all well, having loads of fun and keeping us entertained :-)  It has been a busy trip, and some of us began the day with a quick visit to the Medici Chapel while others opted for some extra sleep.  The Medici Chapel was amazing.  Not many tourists visit, but it houses some major Michelangelo Sculptures.  By 9:30, Antonio our bus driver was transporting  us to Bologna.  Bologna is a very interesting and beautiful city.  It has the oldest university in the world and continues to attract artists and independent thinkers. We enjoyed a nice lunch and continued on to Jesolo.  Jesolo is a great base for visiting Venice.  It has the longest pedestrian outdoor shopping mall in the world, and the students are taking advantage of the opportunity spend their remaining euros!
