On Sunday we went to San Vito! This was our free day from doing research and we got to explore the city. Everyone had the choice to hike there or take a taxi at either 1:30 pm or 5:30 pm(for dinner). I chose to take the taxi at 1:30. When we arrived in the city, we got dropped off and everyone went off into groups. The first place that we went was a grocery store to shop around for snacks. I got some delicious cookies and two bags of chips. I then waited outside for others to be done. Mike Heim then came around the corner with a group and said that there was a bakery down the street. I asked if they had donuts and he said they did. At this point, I had been craving a donut for so long so I got excited. I then asked Mo if he wanted to go the bakery and we went. We got to the bakery and I picked out a delicious looking donut that had caramel and peanuts on it. After getting the pastries we set out and explored the rest of the town. My favorite part was visiting a playground/park with exercising machines in the back. The machines felt more like random playground equipment than exercising machines. They were interesting and definitely different than back home. I also enjoyed seeing a statue, mural, and kitten in the center of town. Awhile later, we met with one of the mentors and walked to the restaurant where we were having dinner. We sat at a table in the back and relaxed for a while until everyone else started to show up.
For dinner, I had the vegetarian pizza. The pizza was delicious. It had carrots, broccoli, peppers and other veggies on it. I thought the broccoli would taste a little weird, but it turned out to work so well. This restaurant(who I sadly forgot the name of) officially has my second favorite vegetarian pizza. The first being Vita pizza in Duluth, Minnesota. After dinner, we all took taxis back to the house.
