We drove to Cortona - where the movie 'Tuscany under the sun' was made. It is full of tourists - we heard American, English, German, French and us. It is very steep to get to the piazza, past all the villas and through the narrow cobbled streets. The beginning of the walk has escalators built into the rockface of the natural environment that takes us to the beginning of the walks through lots of narrow laneways.
It was beautiful with lots of great photographic moments. We lunched on fabulous home made gnocchi and lasagne with a *** salad and bread and olive oil.
Got home around 4pm downloaded photos, had a shower and rested a little. Ate dinner at an italian retaurant - wonderful again. John had ravioli, I had pasta and Cherie had spaghetti, all with a glass of red and salad to share. We had capuccinnos and desert .. Cherie had (real) tiramasu, Jon had souffle and I had the most divine pannacotta with baileys.
A lovely dinner again ... with great chit chat and interesting discussion - about colours that people are and business ideas and about food !
Home and a bit of post production work on our photos and into bed by midnight.
