... it was leaving that very moment. We ran outside to see it departing on its way to Perugia. So now we had to wait another 45 minutes for the next one. We didn’t miss that one, but got back to the hotel well after dinner had been served. Good thing we had had a big lunch!]

We are getting very fit. Back in Assisi we managed to find a lovely cake shop and delicious cake and coffee.
