We have arrived in Italy safely, though without a reliable source of Internet, so our postings may be sporadic. Added to that is the fact that Bruce has determined that we should sample every variety of wine made in Tuscany. The times when the requisite level of sobriety required for posting to this blog correspond to those moments when internet service is actually available will act to further limit our updates. We hope you will understand.
To bring you up to date; we have landed in Milan, gotten our poor excuse for an automobile, and have (somehow) managed to navigate ourselves to the lovely town of Santa Margherita Ligure where we met up with Bruce and Carla. Santa Margherita is the town where the poorer millionaires hang out while waiting to be invited to the big table at Portofino, five kilometers up the coast. We took the local bus up to Portofino this morning to hang out and take some pictures – altogether a lovely time, but I think that we all prefer it here. Tomorrow, Bruce and Carla head up to San Remo for the day while Carol and I head south to visit the Cinque Terre town of Vernazza. We will meet up again tomorrow night to compare notes… and drink more wine. BTW, the food has been great (duh!), and we are all gaining weight. More later. Oh!, and Carol bought a rubber duck!
