We’re getting better at typing in the right destination on Maps. Even so, Google took us on a circuitous route to the lovely city of Arrezo, and nearly doubled the time. Knowing we would probably be tired by day’s end, she thoughtfully rerouted the way home to the autostrada and sent us home in just over an hour. We no longer question her motives and she no longer judges our bad spelling. Win/win.
Arrezo was fun, although it took us some time to find the main piazza, where we sat in the sun and enjoyed a nice meal at a fancy restaurant. Not usually our style, but after quite a long wander and popping in and out of a few churches, we felt we owed it to ourselves. It was very quiet, none of the usual tourist hustle evident, which was relaxing.
Today is our last full day in Monteciano. Tuscany has been everything that I have ever hoped and dreamed of, and I will miss it, as well as our beautiful villa and our kind hostess. Early tomorrow we will pack up a nice picnic lunch and hit the road for the 5-6 hour drive to Naples. After saying a fond farewell to the Fiat at the airport drop off, we will then bus/train the short distance to Sorrento, where we will be for the next 4 days. Time for the Amalfi coast and all the delights within!
