About what happened when Emma went to Bologna, and the experiences she had therein.

Train Down the Coast
Bologna is so empty right now that the streets seem haunted. And it's getting gradually more difficult to buy stuff - something, anything - because all the stores are closing. Not just the stores: the hospitals, public offices, university, you name it. Whether you have a hernia or a broken kitchen sink, the message is the same: wait until September. All of this means one thing: it's time to go on vacation . . . in another place!
Tomorrow I'm heading to Lecce (that's the heel of the boot for the geographically inclined). I will stay with various wonderfully hospitable friends. Oddly, my most hospitable friends all come from the same city. This is a clear indication that they are worth visiting, simultaneously.
The plan is basic: beach and food. Can't wait.

I wish I had a rock organizer like that. I would make better use of it though. I don't understand why they just filled it with the same blend of rocks. Stupid.
Lecce sounds like it's got something to do with milk.
I can't wait till you come home for a visit.
Being a single, unemployed woman can be a lonely, but reflective experience, filled with learnings. Send your aunt a postcard sometime. She misses you.
