Some scribbly samples...

Galleria dell'Accademia
I am starting to appreciate my long afternoons of solitude. Yesterday after my early class, I went to the Museo della Specola. I admit I was skeptical, because I was told it was a museum full of taxidermy. I was picturing the janitor from Scrubs with his army of stuffed squirrels. I was pleasantly surprised by a huge zoological exhibit, and another whole wing for anatomical wax sculptures. The first part is devoted to countless cases of every kind of animal you can imagine. There were three whole rooms devoted just to birds! It was actually really amazing, and I wandered around for hours, sketching of course!
There was also a fascinating wax anatomy exhibit, which I found absolutely amazing!
This weekend I am taking a trip to Rome to see Kelly, Colleen and other friends from SLU that are visiting from France. I am sure to have many adventures and stories to report upon my return!
