Siena

---

We just LOVE Tuscany. Have spent the last two days walking up hill and down dale from little village to little village. All beautiful. All different. Have walked miles and miles and it has been very hot! Had a picnic today overlooking 360 degrees of beautiful Tuscan scenery - breathtaking! Arrived in Siena about 5 pm and have just had a realo trulo pasta meal in what seemed to be a realo trulo Italian kitchen - no menu, no wine list - grumpy old man with apron made out of a teatowel - but the 7Euro meal, including wine from a decanter plonked on the table, was to die for.

Ad and I can't get over how trim the Italian women are. We decided it was their intake of olive oil so have upped ours. No luck. I had the trots for the day - Ad the opposite!

We have the day in Siena tomorrow and shortly head off to the Chinque Terre. We are both really looking forward to this and anticipate it will be highlight of our Italian sojurn.

That's it for now. Thanks for your messages.

Cheers and love. Ad and Liz
