Here is the car we leased - a Citroen Berlingo. And it is sitting outside our cabin. Fortunately it is on the outside of the camp ground overlooking a field of some mysterious legume. I think they are fava beans.
Here is Tom working on his post.
My iPad is very popular, I bought a chip at the Vodaphone store for unlimited data woohoo! Everybody wants to use it for Internet, mail, banking etc. Tom is reduced to using it since the campground doesn't have wifi. That's pronounced weefee.
So far we have spent time in Cinque Terre. Taking a crowded train and a rough boat. Jessie an Duncan liked it so much they took the train back for a second day.
Sienna - just imagine this piazza during the high season or the Palio (horse races - look it up).
And even better this is where the infamous "Strada Bianchi" bike race finishes in march every year. We did see some of those white rock roads on the way into town - they were Dude Awesome.
San Gimignano where we were really glad we got there at 9 am and it wasn't every crowded.
We ended up that day with the crossbow contest in Volterra . Lots of pagentry.
Lucca - a very nice walled city. We have been twice. We rented bikes and road around the top of the city walls, first one direction, then the reverse.
Tom and Duncan hiked to the top of this tour for a panaramic view. It has oak trees on top.
Good time being had by all.
