Heading to Orvieto (think under the Tuscan Sun)

We rented a car in Florence and headed to Orvieto. We were excited about ths part of the trip bc we rented a farm house in the middle of a vineyard and knew that it would afford a lot of down time. We both brought many books that we wanted to enjoy while away! When we arrived to the house we were giddy. It was a four bedroom home (wish family and friends could have helped fill the rooms) with a huge kitchen and family room. We took two day trips- the actual town of Orvieto and Civita. They were these little hill towns and we spent a few hours in each. The rest of the time was spent reading...we got a few bottles of wine, had fresh cheese, bread, and olives and ate outside for each meal. Come to think of it, we spent most of our time outside here.

These first few are of us at the house....
