Thursday, January 30
We left rainy Washington, which actually hasn’t had much
rain this winter, to come to the warmth of Italy. However, it has rained pretty
much every minute of this day in San Salvatore, and we only ventured outside to
borrow Roberta’s car to go to the grocery store and buy a sewing machine for Lucy's quilting projects. The rain is not a problem,
though, as we had planned to stay inside and rest today anyway.
Tomorrow we leave on an eleven-day cruise to various cities,
which is atypical of our visits to Italy. We usually prefer the slower pace of
staying in one place and taking only short forays into smaller cities, but we
got a superb deal from Costa Cruises and decided to mix up our usual routine. Thus
we will have limited Internet access, and I won’t be posting any blog entries
until sometime after February 12. Then we will be at the Casolare dei Fiori
until late April, and we hope to continue our goals of learning Italian, living
like Italians and making connections with family and the community. Ci vediamo
presto!
You two have fun!
