It is truly amazing here. We have so far seen San Giminiano, fierce little village that is a world heritage site several vineyards where we bought a lot of wine. With the new flight rules, no liquids, they offer to ship the wine to your home so we have bought several cases of differnt wines and some grappa for Mr S.
Today we spent the day in Siena. They are getting ready for Il Palio a horse race in the center of Siena. The different quarters compete agains each other and it is dead serious.
In San Giminiano we found a fierce store Essentia Arte, owned by a Swedish woman and her Italian husband. She makes clothes and he is an artist, a sculptor.
Tomorrow we are moving on to Florence and the Salvatore Ferragamo store - my temple of bliss.
Now the game is on. I have no personal favourite this time but the WC finals is lwayd the WC finals.
And I will drink my daily prosecco while I watch them run
Take care
Love/E
Song of the day: Defeated - Anastacia
