And really, like a bunch of animals, in his mind, really.

He nodded when she said they were on the same floor. "That's good. I've never actually been to Florence. Only spent some time in Tuscany and Nepal a couple years back doing some research..." Looking over her shoulder, at their rooms and making a mental note of them, he nodded in agreement. "Sounds good. There's this bridge, the Vecchio or something, which sounded fascinating in the tourbooks. But I think we should start with the center square..." because even if he'd never been to Florence, that didn't mean he hadn't looked at the tourbooks Dia showed him a couple weeks ago. Swinging his backpack over his shoulder, he led the way to the reception area. "Do you think they speak English?" he whispered, wondering if he had to dig out his Italian translation book from his backpack. He was prepared.

A wide, reflective smile spread across her face when he made mention to a train she hadn't ridden that in what felt like centuries. Now that he mentioned it she had found that ride quite relaxing too...but in a different way. The kind of way that it took only a select few to really appreciate. "Wonderful! Such a pity it was nothing like that old train; it might have been able to bring back some great memories for you." Great, now she was wishing [i[she[/i] had travelled by train.

She was impressed. He had actually bothered to read and take note of the various places in the tourbook. She had done that too but her places...probably weren't the same as the ones he took note of. "So then, this is your first trip here? Merlin, we'll have to make it special then so you'll want to visit again!" And of course, if during his next visit he wanted company he could invite her; one could never visit this place too often afterall. "And that sounds good to me!" The centre square had a lot of nice shops.

It wasn't until they got to the counter and she heard him asking that very important question that she remembered why she usually visited here with a friend...one that knew the language. "Ummm...I'm not sure, do you want to give it a go?" Because she wasn't very good at Italian and she didn't want to waste time if, being the studious guy he was, he bothered to brush up on some before he got here.
