Yesterday was spent in the pool at first followed by an amazing lunch cooked by my wife and then we went out to La Casa Colonica Agriturismo Wine Oil Mezzetti after doing some shopping for a few odds and ends that can only be found in Italy. I liked the wine, not all that was served, but enough to want to buy some. We left with some olive oil that they make there but no alcohol! It was fascinating to learn more about the local wines as well as details about the labelled they use. I will not post it here as if you are reading this you may want to visit. The only downside to this was that I got my bite there which has limited me today. Also if you do visit here, follow the SatNav coordinates that they give you as we did not and had an interesting drive until we pulled over and programmed them in.
As you can see, we got some great photos of the peacock that lives in the area. The last time we saw one, there were actually two, this one was solitary though. I have seen peacocks before but seeing one in the wild is different and in addition, the sunlight makes its colours come to life much more.
Dinner was a takeaway from Tabacchi Jazz and as before it was great and as the children had one pizza each (which they could not finish) I got to have leftovers for breakfast! Today we did go out to lunch at Ranco Nuovo Ristorante. The food was great as before but as my daughter would not finish her food in a timely manner, the service fell apart, though that may have been down to them and not my daughter. I am going to miss Umbria and Santa Chiara, the children who have made friends here probably are going to miss it as well and while my wife and I would come back (and certainly recommend it to others) both kids are keen on a return here next year! Last of all, the cats. Two gorgeous cats who are great with kids. I will miss them as well.
