Our first experience in Brescia: Getting lost!

Saturday we went as a group to go pick up our bikes. After we got our bikes the group went grocery shopping. Christine, Heather and I couldn't go with the group because we had to get more money back at our apartment. We were then going to meet up with the group to go grocery shopping but instead decided to go grab a bite to eat at a pizzeria. We parked our bikes and began to walk to find a desirable location to have our first Italian meal. We found a restaurant at about 3pm and ordered calzone's. The calzones were huge but delicious. One thing we noticed was that there wasn't any sauce in the calzone so we had to ask for some on the side. It was difficult to get across what we wanted because they didn't speak any English. We also noticed that the Italians next to us got bread as an appetizer before their meal and we did not. After our first experience we left and all of us forgot how to get back to where our bikes were. It took us about an hour to get back to where our bikes were and consequently ran into the rest of our group just in time to go to class. That's all for now. Ciao!
