... to the UK. It was wonderful to meet Eunice's sister, Kristina, and her family. I especially enjoyed the Monopoly game with Giulia and Deborah.
I beat Nuccio in Scopa*- a great italian card game much like casino but with prettier cards- (he may have let me win), learned to make biscotti, and toured the historic part of Giarratana, including the remains of an old castle and "downtown" Ibla, which was worth an evening in the rain to see its beautiful domed ...
