En route to the SITA station - 07.03.06

We want to go to Siena today, an hour away by bus. But as usual, we're running late. We're mostly adjusted to the time zone, but we still struggle a little to wake up in the morning. Since I'm on vacation, this normally wouldn't bother me, but it is still winter and there's only so much daylight.

So it's 11:30 and we're trying to catch the 12:05 bus. We've got sandwiches bought on the go. Meena's is mozzarella, tomato, and basil, and mine is prosciutto and cheese. We walk fast and eat. After three bites, we realize we've got one another's sandwiches. We trade, and Meena is sad because the little taste of Tuscan ham has made her realize the grave error of her vegetarian ways.

I screw up with the map and we walk the long way around the train station. But we catch our bus.
