Day 16 – June 4, 2025 – Foiano, Italy
Today we have nothing planned except to return some coffee pods that don’t fit the coffee machine and to grab a few more groceries. We had a leisurely breakfast then headed into town to run our errands. We were trying to find some fish and went to a store called, Eurospin, which turned out to be a really great store. We will definitely be going back there for shopping in the future. John did go a little crazy with buying some meat, mortadella, and I think him and the butcher had a communication problem as I think he bought 10 pounds of it, lol!!!!
After we got back, I threw more laundry in, which gets us caught up from when we got to Italy. We all had a great lunch of fruit, meat and bread with a nice glass of wine.
John had some work to do so I worked on the blog, and Steven and Patty headed to the pool for a while. While I love the blog in general, it is time consuming to go through the pictures and try to remember what we did each day, lol! I am behind with the pictures but will have time to catch up soon.
For dinner, we cooked salmon, catfish, shrimp, and also had steamed broccoli/cauliflower, and roasted asparagus. The oven is a little wonky, but the guys figured it out and saved the day. We had a feast that was delicious! We played Hand and Foot again and the boys beat us this time, so we need a tiebreaker soon!
We called it a night and tomorrow’s plan is to drive to Montepulciano where we have a wine tasting at De Ricci cellars. John and I were there in 2023 and loved it and wanted to share with Steve and Patty. We will also do a little driving tour afterwards that goes along with Rick Steves’ book. Looking forward to it – ciao!
