Plans are being planned...


As our good friend Dan Miller pointed out, Italy is a mere 10 weeks away. Time to get some plans planned.

I have started looking into making reservations at some of the local wineries, most notably Biondi Santi, the family that "invented" the Brunello using a Sangiovese clone. The winery looks beautiful, and the wine sounds quite delicious. We are also about to plan the catered "Typically Tuscan" five course meal that will happen on each Wednesday we're in the Villa. I will make sure to let you know what we have planned for you!

Matt and I have also started making our plans for AFTER our stay at the Villa, something that we suddenly realized we needed to do, ummm, NOW.

So we are leaving Amiata on Saturday, June 14 and meandering northward, ideally landing in the Lakes region on Monday. A couple of days there, and then on to Cap d'Antibes for a little sun in the Cote d'Azur (and a little "work" for Matt at Cannes with the Creatures). Friday, we pack up tents once again and get on the fast train to Paris, where we will play with our friends Audrey and Damien for a couple of days.

I just can't wait.
