Aren't you supposed to be working, you may ask? Well, I am! I am "testing" the property to make sure my clients can have a relaxing, enjoyable vacation. My test proves 100% positive! Joan and I enjoyed some sun by the pool today, went into a local grocery store to grab a few items for dinner, and are enjoying our first day off if you will.
The flight in was tough with screaming babies and uncomfortable seats, so there was not a lot of sleeping on the plane. By the time we got to our hotel in Florence, we were toast! The night was saved by a fantastic dinner at an off the beaten path restaurant in Florence where I tasted the best pasta ever. I will more than likely make that the new "Welcome Dinner" place for the Bite of Italy Tour in 2012.
Yesterday we went to a friend's family cattle farm. It was so great to hear Athos speak about his cattle and the passion and love he puts into his job. Italians truly see food in a different light than Americans and I simply can't wait to share that with my clients. I got some great videa (I think) of it and as soon as I figure out how to work the video software I will upload it for all to enjoy.
Tomorrow we are off to Lucca, a great city in Tuscany. I will be inspecting a new property and experiencing some new tours so stay tuned to hear about them and all the experiences along the way.
Ciao ciao ciao!
