Siena Italy, Nov 16 2010. Well we broke down today and actually did a shore excursion through the ship to Siena. With the threat of more rain I did not want to be caught out in the rain seeing things in Florence or Pisa that we have seen before. If I am going to be wet I want to at least see new things. Lynn had been to Siena in the past so she took a tour to The Cinque Terra.
Siena exceeded all our expectations. What a beautiful medieval period town. We spent 10 hours exploring it and the Tuscan country side. Of course no visit to Tuscany is complete without some Chianti vine. We saw vineyards and olive tree groves and learned all about Olive oil and Chianti vine. This trip was worth every penny spent. AND guess what?? NO rain!!!!!! Just a few sprinkles as we boarded the bus back to the ship
Tomorrow we face the craziness that is Rome.
