... we need to be in Morocco by the 18th Dec as Kim promised me I would have surfing on my birthday - yay!!!! Then we have Hayden and Gill joining us for Christmas in Marrakesh - whoo hoo! It was text message city in Scooby this morning as we got another text this time from Gill in London giving us the fantastic news that I had been accepted as a British citizen. I had lodged my papers before we left London but did not expect to hear so soon as processing times can be up to 6 months!

... to shut the door.. unusually for me I didnt scream either. This scared Kathleen more and we sat there in shock. I have no idea what it was but we were so big and brave (not) that we ended up driving to the car park we stayed in the night before.. oh dear.
Saturday we had had enough and left Elba.. trying to squeeze onto the first ferry, and missing out and headed to Florence...

Non ero mai stato all'Isola d'Elba.
Di solito sceglievo altre mete del Mediterraneo (Grecia, Tunisia, Marocco, Spagna, Sicilia, Sardegna, ecc.) perchè pensavo fosse poco "calda" e poco "mediterranea".
Invece è stata una bellissima sorpresa.

Se devo dare un voto alle spieaggie che ho visto:
Biadola 10, Cavoli 10, Procchio 9, Lacona 7

Avant de travailler sur le périple oenologique sur lequel nous ne pourrons faire l'impasse cette année, Voici un rappel de notre balade du 5 mai 2008 jusqu'à Massa Maritima en passant par Sticciano, Roccastrada, Sassofortino, Rocatederighi, Tatti et Bellavista

Hello! We just got back from the beautiful island of Elba and I just wanted to let everyone that I am dropping out of Gonzaga and will be residing there permanently. Okay, maybe not quite yet, but it was sooo gorgeous and the weather could not have been much better. It was sunny everyday we were there and the water was the perfect temperature. We left early Friday morning from Florence and got into ...

... that the 10 or so cars when we arrived at 2am have swelled to hundreds, all waiting to get on the ferry. Given we're looking for quiet beaches away from crowds we decide to go somewhere where it may be quieter, and Mercedes suggests Elba as she had a quiet holiday there many years ago. So off we go to Elba, and we find there's hundreds of cars waiting for the ferry too, but our options are limited so we end up going over, hoping we can find accommodation, as it's still high season ...

After spending the day roaming the neighborhood on foot, and making sure we get a nap (the opera doesn't start until 9!), it's finally time to head over to San Galgano Abbey. Thankfully, the rain had moved on and it was a gorgeous day. We went early so we could dine at the ristorante there, and sat outside and watched a beautiful play of setting sun and shadows move around the abbey. The language of the ...

... slowly being drawn and we were Maia and Nicole once again. We picked olives for three and a half days and learned about the process of turning olives to oil. The weather blessed us once again and we raked little black olives off the trees, onto a net or a blanket, under the tuscan sun. That´s how it is done, with little rakes that children use to play in the sand. You comb the tree, and the olives drop onto a big net, or a picnic style blanket if it is a ...

... a half hours during the wee hours of Sunday Morning I decided to go back to bed before the infamous Katie A. Dutli came this afternoon. Calling to a different country is quite difficult as there are so many additional country codes and what not. I think it was my most productive Sunday in the history of productive college Sundays. We took her to the place that we had our picture taken at on Friday. We had an awesome lunch at a little place by the Arno, and went window shopping on the ...
