...A Much Better Day!
... where it was supposed to be. We were on the street behind the street address for the office - and John spied it. Right there in the piazza. And to our relief, they also had wi-fi. Free. That worked! That's how we posted the last few blogs. And this one too. With some important trip logistics worked out, we stopped at the pizzeria right outside from our apartment.
