On Sunday we were supposed to swim. I was going to break in my bathing suit for the first time this season. It didn't happen. We did drive around an island and eat a delicious lunch in Orbetello, but it mostly just looked like this:

I was glad that I had got to see Orbetello in the sun with Brenda when she was here, because we barely got out of the car!
After Orbetello we drove to Orvieto and on the way we saw these:
So, while I didn't get to have the first swim of the season I did see my first sunflowers. Gorgeous. This is Orvieto:

One of the most prettiest towns I've visited in Italy.
With a Duomo:

And gelato. Of course.
And the most beautiful view:

It's now Wednesday and I will be going home exactly a week from now...so begins my last week in Italy. It's been named "The Funnest Week Ever" and I'm planning to enjoy and embrace it completely.

Your uncle and I cycled to Orvieto...it is a beauty.
Oh Ant, I don't even want to think about biking up the hill into town...you know, I don't even want to think about walking it...we took the elevator up. Ha! It's so neat how we've been to the small itty bitty Italian town..I love it!
