Another early morning start got us on the bus by 7.30am for the long trip to Assisi. After the long 5 hour journey on the bus, we got off in Assisi. After an elegant lunch at a local resturant, the boys ventured out into the city with the help of a local guide. We visited St Francis (San Francesco) and St Clares (San Chiara) Churches and learned a lot about the culture of the the city at the same time. BUT unfortunately just as we exited St Francis' Church the heavens opened and the rain came and lots of it. From the surf of the Amalfi to the streets of Assisi the boys were saturated.
After the tour we had about 60 minutes of free time in which the boys had a look around a very medieval syle town. Many boys went souvenir shopping while others went for another look through the beautiful churches. Like Adelaide, Assisi has many churches. The boys took the opportunity wisely but many were detered from venturing too far because of the rain. The boys than took a quick 10 minute journey down the road to the Accomadation for the night, Hotel Turin. All the boys are ready for a good nights sleep and a big Easter Sunday tomoz.
