Just in Case . . .

Sometimes we have glitches with the internet connection in Italy so if nothing appears here for a few days that's what's happening. We'll try to get it fixed but who knows what's happening out there in cyber space!




Oct. 7 - Enjoying Tuscany at Its Best

Wednesday was the day to see "The Best of Tuscany" with Walkabout Tours.  On the motor coach at 8:30, it was off to visit Siena, San Gimignano and Pisa with a delightful stop for lunch and wine tasting at an organic farm and winery.  Patrizia took another route today with a train trip across the county to the East coast at Rimini and then a bus trip to San Marino.  San Marino is not governed by Italy even though it is within the country geographically.  It is the oldest independent republic in the world - governing itself since it was founded a thousand years ago.  Photos today are from past trips to Tuscany, but the Walkabout tour is always first class and always visiting the same interesting venues.  Reports from our travelers were glowing and everyone had a great time with their guide, Antonella.
