Tuscany

Tonight I fly to Italy where I'll spend a few days in Florence, about a week biking in Tuscany and then finish with a few days in Rome.  This week I read Under the Tuscan Sun which did a good job describing what its like to live in Tuscany from an American perspective.  It sounds like a wonderfully relaxing and beautiful place and I can't wait to experience the place, the culture, the people and of course the food and wine!  And, the weather forecasts for Florence and Rome have all been promising - temperatures in the high 60s/low 70s, mostly sunny and very little wind. 

Hopefully I'll be able to find an occasional internet cafe so I can post photos and updates as the journey progresses.

When are you back? My friend would still like for you to meet her sister. I'm going to give her this blog so she can get a flavor of Patrick. Hope you don't mind...
