Mare Pizza? Looks real good to me

Timberlands are great shoes in wet and rocky climates, not when you walk 6 miles...

So this weekend me and a few other of my classmates decided to finally get out of this small town and see what eles the boot had to offer, we dident go to far but a little was enough for us. We took a bus down to the center of Asti, Italy for a day trip to see what we were missing, and we were some what impressed. Now if you go to a town such as Asti where you can buy pretty much anything you would need, but you have no real need for anything you end up walking around...alot. We started by hitting the open air market where there is enhough fresh food, clothing, electronics, and anything eles your heart could ever possibly need, outside. The easiest way to describe it is that its like a costco warehouse with out a roof on it. When then decided to hit up all the roads, main drags, and side street we could just to say we had left no stone unturned. While walking around we found out that all the churches in Asti are un-believable, almost completely covered in hand paintings of all sorts of biblical things. It really is something you have to see once, and the churches we saw wernt really even that big, atleast compared to the once around rome and other major cities.  We continued walking around window shopping like every other tourist would and started to realize how small our small town really was, and this city too wasent at all that big, so it really made us all curious about our future here and what eles would supries us in our future tavels. After enough church hoping and aimless walking we grabbed a slice of pizza and a bira and headed back home.

Note: Mare pizza is a "Sea" pizza meaning its going to have all sorts of random sea-food on it...stick with margarita.
