Heading off on a bicycle tour through Tuscany!! |
We toured this castle first. We were shown where they make wine and Olive Oil on site! Very cool. |
The wine-filled barrels |
Then we got the sample the on-site created products! |
Incredible views from the castle top. |
These barrels of wine are stored here for over 100 years! |
And off we go! About to hop on ;-) |
But we dried off easily after lunch ;-) the sun was out and shining. |
One of my fellow bicycle riders, Matt. I had a lovely dinner with him and his Mom later on this evening. We all had a great click :-) lots of fun! |
This is the same castle we toured...but from afar. And check out those sunflower fields, whoa. |
I loved it so much, I had to go back for seconds. This is where Matt, Monique and myself went to dinner. And I enjoyed for a second time the incredibly Gorgonzola and pear gnocchi. |
And amazing chocolate torte for dessert. SO rich and yummy. |
My god, do I love pesto. And especially in Italy. One of the best pestos I ever had was here on this trip. |
I Googled "Best Tiramisu in Florence." This is where it led me. And yes, it was excellent. |
Spent my last afternoon here, reading in the rose garden perched high above Florence. |
<3 love this photo of Florence. I waited up here for an hour to get this, and the following photos of the city. |
Last night. Delicious Sacher Torte while watching the activity in the piazza and writing in my journal about my travels. |
