San lorenzo shopping

3 friends and me went shopping in the outdoor market at San Lorenzo this morning.  It was really interesting and  stressful because there are so many shoppers and vendors who act like they desperately need your business.  Although, I made some of the best purchases of the trip.  I got 6 Armani knock off ties, a Burberry knock off scarf, and a Hermes knock off silk scarf for 30 Euros.  I also picked up a Louis Vuitton knock off messenger bag that is a very high quality fake for 80 Euros.  The only part that looks sketchy is the color of the leather, but it is nothing a little leather cleaner and sun can't fix.  After 45 minutes of gazing and dodging, I had definitely had enough!  Some of the people don't know what no means, whether it's English, Italian, Spanish, or cursing.  I also walked by the Synagogue this morning with my friend, Justin, which was really beautiful and quiet.  I love the turquoise color tiles and overall architecture of the building; it is arguably my favorite in Florence.  I really want to try Ruth's Kosher Vegetarian restaurant by the synagogue.  I've only heard great things about it and I think that it would bring diversity to the usual pasta or bread we've been eating ad nauseam.  I can't wait to see the highlights from the US Open tomorrow.  It should be really interesting to see if Tiger's knee can hold up to his usual domination of final rounds in major championships when he is in the lead.  It will be on NBC all day Sunday if any one is interested.  Yesterday's back nine was some of the most exciting sport I have seen in quite some time!  Golf fan or not, check it out!  A presto.
