Italy Honeymoon #2 More food...more sights

Positano

picnic lunch on the beach...whole wheat crackers, mozzarella, pesto, apple slices and of course...wine
Rome
some famous dessert called Trafuto...it costs a pretty penny, but man is it chocolaty!
these drinking fountains are everywhere....good, cold, refreshing water...try not to look at the mossy growth and rusty structure
Florence

writing in my journal about all my fabulous experiences in Italy

Wine Country - Tuscany
BEAUTIFUL countryside! almost as pretty as Iowa's :)
we met Iris at the bar the night before and she offered us a private wine tour at the winery she works at...sweeet!
grapes fermenting


we had several picnics to help stick to our budget...pesto, fresh mozzarella, salami
Sienna
