Orvieto


In celebration of the long weekend and as our one last hurrah with the Myers, the six of us headed a few hours north to the sleepy (at least in November) little plateau town of Orvieto. Anyone who's headed north of Rome on the A1 towards Florence will recognize Orvieto as the awesome walled-city off to the left - the one we always stare at and say "we really need to go there...."

Even though we only spent one night there, it was still pretty cool; its always neat to stay inside the walls at night when the "real" Italy peeks through. Definitely worth a second visit, especially since its such an easy and [relatively] quick drive up there. Oh yeah, and I like the hats there, too.

Even though Steve will be around for a few more weeks, Melissa and Joseph are practically out the door and back on their way to the states; so Meliss, Joes': be safe, and I'm sure we'll see you in DC.

Also did you know that Michael Bayne and Chelsea from Norfolk, VA are serving at our church in Clarksville now???
Just put that connection together in my head. :)
Not sure about our Christmas travel plans yet, but hopefully the 21st will work out!
