Day-trip to assisi

just got back from assisi on a daytrip. it was excellent. on the way there, i pretty much slept the entire 2 hours. we arrived at about 10am at the portiuncola, which is a basillica built around a little chapel built by st. francis. then we went to assisi itself. it was my 5th time there and i never get sick of seeing it. its a quaint town with alot of history to it.
we had a SEVEN FOOT friar from sudan come with us. we walked about 30 feet behind him and it was hillarious seeing the people's reaction when they pass him. alot of "mama mia!!", jaws were dropping and eyes were wide open. he was really cool about it. he stopped alot of times and answered people's questions with a smile. he had alot of pictures taken of him throughout the day.
coming back, i read (yes, i actually read a book!) "breakfast at tiffany's". i watched the movie and was curious to read the book. i realized later, was i reading a "chick-book" (book's version of chick-flick")? i'm scared now.
ill post up pictures tomorrow.
