Under the Tuscan Sun (corny we know)

Hi folks,
We've actually been out of touch with respect to internet and only have a moment now. Will post again in Provence with pictures. Tuscany has been beautiful - everything that Laura hoped for. We've been to Sienna, San Gimignano and Pisa. Not too much hiking going on but we are perfecting our gelato eating skills. The scenery is gorgeous. The driving is crazy. We've taken a gazillion pictures, especially of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Laura climbed almost to the very top before vertigo set in but the other three soldiered on and have photos to prove it.
We haven't said much but we are thinking of all our friends and family at home. Postcards have been written but not necessarily mailed| Laura sends love to her three sons and looks forward to seeing them. Julie says hi to her mom and dad. The other two aren't here but they say hi too.
As we said, more the next time we post. We leave tomorrow for Cinque Terre and are hopeful that Steffi will make it to be with us this time. Then, we head to France.
All for now,
"The Girls"

Hey Laura, had a great weekend at the cottage - all but Maureen slept out on the deck under the stars! Had an awesome hike in Frontenac Park. See you soon! Love Sam
