Italy introduction & ISA meeting



We were greated in Florence by the ISA staff. We settled in Hotel La Residenza. Our rooms we very accommodating and then we left to walk to the ISA building for a meeting. The meeting was very detailed and ISA assured us a great time, where to go on our free time, and even gave us cards for museums to visit during our stay. After that was the introduction dinner down the street at the pizzeria. We all got to share some stories and see what we wanted to do the next day.

Opening Travels to Italy


Italy's trip overall was a success. With many flights we all took, we managed to meet our groups in Newark and or New York to go over flight and trip information. Once we landed in London, we took a flight from Pisa to Florence. The 6/7 hours to London was the long duration of the flight. London's airport was filled with fashion stores and food stops to keep the next flight more comfortable. The flight from London to Pisa was only 1 hour, which was nice.
