No flavour continued... by Jo

My uncle came to collect us at 8am and off we went to Stanstead airport. All went according to the itinerary... which Nayera kept in her phone for peace of mind. We arrived into Pisa and collected our hire car, a new fiat punto which was very nice.
The drive to Casa Bellavista was about two and half hours and fairly straightforward, a taster of some beautiful countryside. If you want to have a look at their website you can find it here



We get our amazing tuscan guest house at 5.30ish and stare out at the wonderful views from our room. We are very lucky that we are the only guests as May is the the start of the season.


Simonetta our host welcomes us and recommends a local restaurant. It was very expensive and we ate 3 courses (no room for dessert) not realising we could just have pasta, although I think in a posh restaurant this is frowned upon. We had Brushetta, nutty tagliatelle, chickpea soup, lemon chicken, pork chop. Later we drive back to our lovely big bed.

No Icecream today but so many flavours to come....
