Just got back

Went to walk around town for one more time. Had late lunch which was a home made pasta with sardines, raisins, pine nuts and finely ground bread crumbs.  My mom never made it cause my dad and I were the only ones who would eat it.  I know to some it might sound terrible but the raisins balance out the saltiness of fish.  Bruce had cream of asp soup and breaded veal.  Each had a glass of house local wine, $5 a glass, and we are amazed how wonderful it is.

Then a short walk to our favorite geletto and pastry shop, Bruce took a photo, and I had an almond filled flaky pastry and Bruce a double scoop of choc and one pistachio .  Sat there for awhile and talked to a couple from Conn with a tour group.  Said our goodbyes and off the our last stop to the cafe with the nice owners for our glass of Lemoncello .  In Italy one does say goodbye but see you next year or sometime in the future.

Back to the room and wAtching a very beautiful sunset.  Bruce is trying to get a photo.   Door is open to the baloney and a slight breeze is coming up so the weather changing.

Spent the morning confirming reservations for the trip home.  Called Hertz and they said the car lot is easy to find.  We have been told that by everyone we have asked for directions from.  Bruce told the rep that if we cannot find it he is leaving the car.  The rep said someone would come and get us.  Again, this has been the most unnerving thing on this trip.  Plus not speaking Italian , really speaking and understanding for us, has been an inpetament .

So we leave around 10 a.m. should be there around noon.  Say a prayer that we have a save trip 

Not much else.

Take care.
