While I do like the idea of using scooters to get around, I am not a fan of the sound or the smell. My Man talks about how great it would be if more follks rode them in the U.S., but I have a few hesitations, amely the enormous cars we drive! I suppose it doesn't make too difference if you ride a scooter and you're hit by a deux chevaux as opposed to a monstrous SUV (no brands/types need be mentioned)- but it seems somehow less lethal.
One day we'll use this picture to prove they have been to an ancient coliseum.
So, after the lumpy bed for a couple nights, the time had come to move on. We hit the road sans reservation or hesitation! And we drove to Tuscany. People, there's a reason there is a "mystique" about Tuscany.
It is beautiful! All you have to do is look out the window- the landscape changes and the colors change and it's breathtaking.
No matter where you look- there's miles and miles (or klicks and klicks)of beauty. But where shall we stay? Well, as I was riding shotgun- with our trusty (?) guidebook in my hands, I happened upon Volterra.....some of you may know why this would appeal to me.
Yes, this is the real home of the fictional vampires from Twilight : )
The movie was not filmed here, and we didn't see any vampires (or bats much to Z's disappointment), but it was a great place to visit.
