Today my school went to the city of Taranto to see a play be preformed we had an hour before the show to walk around city and go in a few shops. The city is right on the see and very beautiful. The streets were wide and no cars were allowed on the main street. There were Christmas lights and a tree set up which I thought was pretty funny considering we were surrounded by palm trees.
After walking around the city we made our way to the theater. We saw "The picture of Dorian Gray" performed in English. It was good and I think im the only one who enjoyed it considering everyone else could barely understand! Afterwards it was back to reality and back to the Italian language!
The 18th birthday is very big in Italy. People rent out banquet halls and other large spaces and have 100+ guests. There is eating, drinking, singing, and lots of dancing. Everyone wears their best dresses an we party until about 2 in the morning. I've been to a few and have two coming up next week. I like not always going to the bar and being able to dance. I love 18th birthdays. :)
