Day Trip to Ferrara!



 

So yesterday we took a day trip to Ferrara and it was pretty interesting.  Ferrara is only  8,80 euro round trip, 30 minute train ride from Bologna Centrale.  There is a bomb medieval castle and a beautiful historic center.  We went to the top of the castle and there was a BEAUTIFUL view of the city.  The best part of the trip, however, was the lunch.  We went to a restaurant, and in true italian fashion had a 4 course meal complete with antipasto, il primo (pasta), il secondo (meat), e il dolce (dessert).  I also casually got WASTED off the unlimited amount of white wine they kept bringing to our table.  Day drinking is my favorite activity, so naturally I loved every minute of it, and then proceeded to sing Disney songs through the streets of Ferrara on the way back to the train station after lunch.  All in all it was a beautiful day.  Afterwards I made dinner with some of the other kids in my program and then went to some fun bars, rounding out the night at the gay club Cassero.  The night scene here hasn't fully picked up yet because all the university students have not arrived (classes don't start until Oct. 3), but for the most part I've had fun going out.  Anyway, until next time....ciao!
