Kaitlin, Rebekah, Linn and I went to the Housing Office, because Linn got to the Apartment late last night and needed her Apartment key. Then we went to the School on Piazza delle Cinque Scole, to see if my luggage was dropped off. It wasn't. After we went there, we went to a little snack caffè to have lunch. I wasn't hungry so I just had a soda. Then we went to a small store and got tram tickets. Then we took the tram back to the apartment. We came back to rest for a bit because we did a lot of walking to get to those places. I timed it, and we walked for almost 3 hours. So we took a short break. About then, I realized that I was low on € because of yesterday's experiences and the tram tickets, so I need to use my travel visa to get more cash. However I still hadn't told the bank that I was abroad, so I had to make a call to get that figured out. That took an hour to figure out. I let my friends go to the market without me because I was taking to long. After I got that figured out I worked on finishing my blog from yesterday.
Once everyone got back from the Market, I took pictures of the apartment. Kaitlin, Rebekah and I ate sandwiches from the stuff they bought at the market. Then we decided to go out to get gelato. It took about 2 hours to get gelato and back, partly because we tried to go a different route to get there. On the way to the gelato place, we stopped at a different gelado place and I got a mint chocolate chip gelato. We ending up going in a large loop and getting to the original gelato place from the back. I had melon gelato from there. I ate most of it, but the flavor got boring so I threw the rest away. Then we went back to the apartment thoroughly tired from the trip. I then updated my blog and talked to my mom and dad on skype.
Meng, our last roomie finally got there and is somewhat settled in. She will room with Kaitlin and I. Tomorrow is orientation at 10:00, so I am gonna get ready for bed. Night! or rather buona notte!
END of Day 2.

It was great to see your smiling face and hear your voice via Skype tonight. Sleep well. Tomorrow will be another new adventure!
Doing a lot of eating over there! Hope the food is good! Your roomates and friends over there sound wonderful! I'm sure that once school gets started and you've had a chance to explore more you'll have quite a bit to blog about! Keep on blogging!
