Apr 26,

After Gubbio, on to Tuscany for 3 days, and a marked change in scenery. Umbria was somewhat mountainous. Here we’re surrounded by delightful, very green, rolling hills covered in olive groves, vineyards, and a variety of crops. Still see the hillside and occasional hill top villages, again dating back several centuries. Some of the towns are still encompassed by high stone walls, still in good condition. 

We’ continue to  enjoy some very delicious meals, and quite different from the Italian restaurants in the US, and I might add, the meals not nearly as huge, a welcome change.
