We are in the city and almost as close to the center of it as we can get! After 27 hours of going without stop, and rushing past future visit locations as part of an orientation, we can finally relax some and get the feel of the cities on our own.
For me, this is my first time experiencing jet lag, and it is already doing a doozy to my head. We are six hours ahead of EST, so at the time of this writing...Florence's time is 5:35 and Columbus' is 11:35!
How people who travel constantly survive this, I don't know. Personally, I'm hoping the fact that I barely slept during the actual transit yesterday will help me not wake up absurdly early tomorrow.
More tomorrow, with our first official site visits!
-Bona sera!
