Sunday Chianti ride

Today a Tuscan hill proved no match for our legs as we spent a day cleaning bikes and riding up Chianti covered hills.Then back to indulge in pestou pasta at the Pitti (again an enormous marble pissoir with satisfying dam buster load of water)..We shamefully confined our day to garden pursuits .and  the earliest renaissance   gardens boboli did not disappoint. Terrace dinner consisted of Chianti and sloppy cheese and crunchy bread and olives, old tomatoes and bananas and Tiramisu and canole...whooo whoo we are in italy and have the Duomo in sight to prove it.
Tomorrow we are leaving for Milano and thence somewhere french or swiss who knows....
