Outtings in Firenze.

Some random outtings around town..

We went to Calcio Storico.

Its an incredibly violent soccer-football-rugby-based ball game. Its a huge procession with people in costume before every game. And ten seconds into the game....someone is on the stretcher almost guaranteed!

game
i think the verde won.

Rowing Team

so i lied..there are some cute guys in italy....they belong on the calcio teams and the rowing teams.
these dudes were on the rowing team and the one on my right came up to me on the street and invited me to check out the rowing club...so i took some of my gal pals and we went down...to the club..hehe.

its like this elite rowing club with boats and practicing equiptment...blah blah. he said that the last remaining member of the medici family was a member of the rowing team as well...where was that guy? i want to meet him! unfortunately, according to whats his face...the medici guy is gay.

some random pictures from nights out.





the Fourth of July...

we spent it in Cascine park..OK! what the hell were we thinking! you know how in fairy tales there a map with an area clearly designated as dangerous...like this...
and then the stupid characters go there anyway and then get eaten and die?

yeah..it was like that, except with naked transvestite prostitute drug addicts. it was great fun!

We went to Cascine park at night (very dark) for a barbeque...now before it was too dark, a few girls and i decided to take a cab back home, since the walk back out of the park was VERY VERY dark. so we walked over to a well lit area. stood in a little island and couldn't figure out why all these cars were driving around us and checking us out.

come to find....there are prostitutes there and those were their customers...but wait. it gets better.

there was a transvestite prostitute wearing a sarong and a bra not giving a crap who saw (her? him?) and (she? he?) was walking around with (her? his?) pimp...and a big gust of wind made its skirt fly up...HOLY GUACAMOLE..yes wherever your imagination is going is probably the right place!

DON'T GO TO CASCINE PARK..or maybe..do...it was exciting.

doh! Never go to the Cascine after dark, you shoulda asked ;-). Tuesdays however, Tuesday late morning or lunch time, BEST flea market in the entire world.
