The second week started, and we gradually became accustomed to the road to the classes, and began to enjoy it despite our nervousness. In the evening from 17:00 to 18:30, we participated in the weekly Art Visit and received a detailed explanation while circling the Duomo, the symbol of Florence.
二週目スタート、授業に向かう道もだんだん慣れて緊張の中にも楽しさが味わえるようになりました。夕方17:00〜18:30 週一回あるArt Visit に参加し、フィレンツェの象徴である　「花の聖母教会ドゥオーモ」を一周しながら丁寧に説明を受けました。

I left a little early in the morning and went for a walk around the city, which was still a little empty, before class. Today’s lesson was “Arancini” Arancini “Rice Croquettes”, a traditional Sicilian classic recipe. They are much larger than I expected, and gobbling is the best way to describe them, but they are irresistibly delicious. Filling!
昨日ゆっくりしたおかげで、体調も万全で、朝少し早く出て授業の前にまだちょっと空いている街を散歩。今日のレッスンは『Arancini』アランチーニ　シチリアの伝統的な定番レシピの「ライスコロッケ」です。思った以上の大きさで、ガブリという表現がピッタリの、でもたまらない美味しさです。お腹いっぱい！

We had dinner with our friends who had survived a day late arrival in Florence with us (lol). The long-awaited Fiorentina Bistecca, right near the Church of Santa Croce! We are happy today and the food story continues.
1日遅れのフィレンツェ入りを一緒に乗り越えた(笑)仲間と一緒に夕ご飯をしました。サンタクローチェ教会のすぐ近くで、待望のフィオレンティーナ・ビステッカ！今日も満足で、食の話が続きます。

The last day of the first half of the two-week-long Cooking Lesson was “Rigatoni with vegetable sauce,” “Baked rabbit stuffed with vegetables,” “Pipi e patata (peppers and potatoes) with garnish,” and “Chocolate tart”!　We had to eat something to fill up our stomachs! And since the weather was fine, I went for a walk to Piazzale Michelangelo, which is only 19,735 steps away from the restaurant. I walked 19,735 steps today.
2週間続いた前半のCooking Lesson 最終日は「リガトーニの野菜ソース」　「うさぎの野菜詰め焼」　「ピーピ　エ　パタータ(ピーマンとじゃがいも)の付け合わせ」　「チョコレートタルト」！！　コレは腹ごなしをしなければ！と、お天気も良かったので行きたった「ミケランジェロ広場」まで散歩。本日19,735歩でした。

Although I had no plans for Saturday, I went for a leisurely walk in the afternoon to check out places I wanted to visit in the city. Because it was a holiday, it was very crowded, and so was the area around the museum. I was reminded that I had to make a reservation for the museum.
We then went to the morning market at Santo Spirit Church, which was also an organic market. We bought fresh vegetables, bread, and olives. Cheese, honey, yogurt, olive oil, and other foodstuffs, but also handmade fabrics, accessories, and so on. And it was quite nice to have lunch and watch people passing by.
何も予定のない土曜日でしたが、昼過ぎから市内で行きたい所の下見を兼ねて、のんびり散歩に出かけました。休日のせいもあり大変な人混み、よってミュージアムのまわりもしかり、、。コレはやはりちゃんと予約を取らなければと認識を新たにしました。
そしてサントスピリット教会の朝市へ、今日はオーガニック市でもあった。取り立ての野菜、パン、オリーブなどを購入。チーズ、蜂蜜、ヨーグルト、オリーブオイルなどの食品類が多かったが、手作りの布製品、アクセサリー等々、、。そして、ランチをしながら行き交う人達を眺めるのもなかなかでした。
