Tuscany 2001 - Day 5

Wednesday, 13.6.2001

Absolutely wonderful night - slept through, no dramatic dreams; mood, weather and bowel movements all perfect.

After a partly healthy (fruit!) breakfast, I spend most of the day in the shade or in the pool.

The snack is perfect for a small hunger pang - lots of good tomatoes, local grain bread and oil from Miscianello.

The drive to Florence is very pleasant, because in Italy, despite (or perhaps because of) the large number of road users, everyone is very cooperative and considerate on the roads. It cannot be compared to the narrow-minded traffic in Austria.

Illungo initially seems bored and restless, but it seems that he is excited and looking forward to the same pleasure of fast and quiet movement.

Because I've done without culture in Florence, I'm briefly overcome by a shopping craze. I buy a pair of (full) ¾-length pants in the cool Ritratto shop in Borgo San Lorenzo and then some shades from Nike. My conscience kicks in when I see a T-shirt from Energie and so we head to the car - still wandering through the city - and head towards Castelnuovo Berardenga.

The dinner at Dragoni is excellent and just right. In general: the belly is growing inexorably, but very slowly and less than feared. After all, the belly circumference should soon decrease again. Of course after the vacation, that's also clear.

The internet cafes in Siena and Florence are very busy. But we have now lived for two weeks without these virtual worlds. And the joke of the story: Life is wonderful!

I take another 2 eighths of the novantasette riserva and go to bed contentedly.

The interim status of wine consumption is as expected...
