La Bella Toscana

I feel so fortunate to be able to be here.

The last few days have been the most beautiful days in the most beautiful countryside. There really is nothing like Tuscany, especially in the Spring when the wildflowers are out, the trees are budding, fruit blossoming, and all the crops are coming through so everything is green. Soooooo nice, and I have been fortunate that for most of the time I have been off on back roads – all that research time and scanning Google Earth has really paid off in spades. The only thing that spoils the mood twice a day is air force jets screaming over at low altitude, but it is only twice a day.

Tomorrow, Siena and the first 100kms underfoot.
