Italy, 13.May.2023, Saturday

As Rick said, “you couldn’t make this up,” talking about how beautiful the scenery was today. We had a quiet easy walk, little over 13. It went quickly and no rain! Astonishing. 

This rose caught our eye and we realized there were roses planted at the end of each row, each a different color. Beautiful!

That’s Rick in the distance walking up the hill, getting some quiet time. 

We arrived in San Quirico, another beautiful little medieval village in Tuscany. Our last before we meet up with Sharon, Leaf, and Cathy on Monday and go to Umbria. 

We had lunch at the hotel and then walked into town to the laundromat and got all of our clothes clean. On Monday, we’ll send a bunch of things back to CO so that we have lighter loads when we meet up. 5 people in an Italian size car requires small luggage 🙂

We had a quick walk around town while waiting for the wash to be done and are looking forward to going back tomorrow and exploring at leisure. Our first stop today was a tiny church built around 1060 with a wonderful large statue of Mary in the front. My kind of church. And a bonus, no one was there except for a nun up front who was practicing some songs with a device that gave her background music to support. Rick and I sat down and just enjoyed. 

Dinner at the hotel, too tired to go back into town, we’ll eat in town tomorrow. Kind of nice to have some quiet with no expectations and no agenda.
