Siena/Tuscany

We hit our first major bump in the trip. Upon arrival in Siena, the bus driver dropped us in a plaza (convenient for him to purchase his cigarettes and lotto ticket) but miles from where we were supposed to be.

I am sure there are some lovely people in Siena - but I just haven't met many.

The travel books don't warn you about the …

Not the most elegant journey

... most of our lunches. The views from the train were great, and we excitedly pointed out hill cities and other ancient buildings to one another. Arriving in Siena, the station was smaller than most we'd seen, and we were able to easily snag a free city map from the tourist info office. (Where the gentleman at the desk sat behind a sign saying: Forewarning, I only speak Italian.) We consulted our iPad map, which had automatically zoomed itself out to ...

Wedding Day

We drove to the villa a few days ago and have been settling in here getting ready for the wedding and meeting the other guests coming for the wedding. Ryan and Bick (my nephew and his new wife), have friends from all over. Ryan and Bick work in England and Bick's parents are from Malaysia, so was a very multicultural affair.

Siena is a cool place and there is so much history here. Just walking throughn the streets is amazing and I'm getting used to the Italian way of life to some extent. The food is the first thing I notice, it is so good!!! ...

    The hotel isn't located close to anything. The front desk staff knows nothing about the transport system (wasted an hour and a half waiting for buses that never came), and the "non-smoking" status is a joke.

    Could have been much better

    The rooms and amenities were fine. It was a good place from which to base drives into Tuscany. They seemed tied to the restaurant next door and would not give information for any other. When we tried to use that restaurant, we were rudely told that they were not open (despite the fact the door was open and lights on). Travel into the town is by bus service which is sketchy at best (we waited 90 minutes for one that never came). Despite numerous signs that smoking was forbidden, our room repeatedly filled with cigarette smoke, to the point that both my wife and I got sick. The receptionist's response was a shrug of the shoulders. I cannot imagine any scenario under which I would return to this hotel.
