Today I did very little.
Slept late. Ate late. Left the hotel late.
We went to some stupid museum that was stupidly far away and saw some stupid Monets. We also saw Monet's personal collection of art, which included a great number of illuminated pages (and PIECES of pages, the horror!), none of which I was allowed to take pictures of.
Stupid museum.
ALSO! The stupid museum didn't even have a complete book of the illuminations collection! STUPID! They had A book of their collection, but it included NONE of the Florentine pieces, which where the best pieces of the whole lot, if you ask me!
Stupid museum.
Then we went to a patisserie, and a very nice young man tried very hard to speak English for us, but only managed:
"Good.....uh......er........eh......day?"
He tried very hard, and his pastries were very delicious.
I ate this:
It's a cream puff on top of a cream puff, filled with pistachio bavarian cream.
My life is so hard.
Mom had a berry tart of some sort.
It was also good.
But mine was green and that made it better.
Coincidentilly, this is also the only photo I took today, because it was the only thing that mattered that I was ALLOWED to take a photo of.
(Stupid museum.)
Tomorrow I go to Amsterdam, where my mother is convinced I will be sold into white slavery.
I have already had the Talk on How to Avoid Slavers.
Oddly enough, none of the Talks included rolling and exceptionally high initiative.
That's how I usually avoid slavers.
(Unfortunately, I left my d20 at home. Oh well.)
See you tomorrow, peeps!
