Bouna Serra! We got a late start this morning as it took Kim and Cris longer to get the van than they thought as there was some sort of student protests that blocked the streets so they had to go around them. We never did find out what the protest was about!

We had good intentions about visiting all these places, but got off the Autostrasse (A1) at Orvieto. A little Tuscan town south of Florence. It was so pretty! We walked around, taking pictures, had a late lunch at a trattoria, then walked around town, ending at their Duomo (church). Such a lovely relaxing day! We found a store that sold gelato, which I ordered in Italian! Then it was time to move on and get to Florence.

Kim and Crus did a fantastic driving/navigating job! They totally rock! It took some driving around, but we finally found our hotel-hotel Le due Fontaine in the Piazza of the Innocents. Once we got settled in our rooms ( where the bathroom is so small you can take a shower sitting on the toilet!) we went out and found a pizza place-it just sounded good to all if us. Then back to the hotel, a glass of wine, then bed. We'll see what tomorrow holds!
