For our next weekend day trip we traveled as a group to the cities of San Gimignano and Volterra. They were both really beautiful places and had a lot to see. We visited San Gimignano first. It is the city of towers and we saw the most beautiful view from the top of one of the highest towers. Volterra is where that the second Twilight book takes place so that was kind of cool. The second movie wasn't actually filmed there (we plan to visit that city another weekend) but it is the name of the city that the author actually used. Surprisingly my favorite part of the day was the bus ride to both the cities. The country side was amazing and it was fun to just relax and look out the window at Tuscany.

They have these little one-person trucks everywhere! They are so cool. My friends and I are trying to figure out how we can get one back to Provo.

In San Gimignano they have a Gelateria that has won the "Gelato World Championship" multiple years in a row. Needless to say it was delicious! I got mixed berry, mango and lemon :)
We saw the most amazing rainbow on the way home, this picture doesn't really show how bright and big it was but it really was incredible!
