Onward to Italy

Farmers Market in Sarnen, Switzerland the
morning before we left for Italy
June 28 we ventured on to Italy. Our destination was a small farm in Tuscany, between Florence and Siena.

dinner al fresco
After many hours of driving we arrived tired and hungry at our agriturismo, Castello della Paneretta. The setting is breathtaking, right on a ridge overlooking hills and vineyards. We didn't hang out that long though since it was already almost 7:00pm and we still needed dinner. After a couple minutes drive we arrived in the closet village – San Donato and tried to find a place for dinner that would take credit cards – we hadn't had the chance yet to get euros. At the first couple places we were out of luck – either all reserved or only took cash. Luckily a place on the village square was a success and we toasted to a fun time in Tuscany!
