Under the Tuscan Sun
We took a last look out of our shutter framed window at the jumbled pastel and blue view and exited with the 9:00 ringing of the clock tower. We wished we had more time to relax and absorb the atmosphere and let the world outside keeping turning but we had the train to catch and breakfast to hunt so packed like a mule we moved onward up the cobbled …
