     Ci sono alcune nuvole nel cielo oggi. Siamo andati per nostro passiggiate sulle mura.(There are some clouds in the sky today. We went for our walk on the wall.)


     A friend of mine that I played tennis with, Ray MacNeil told me a friend of his will be in Italy the same time we are there. Ci siamo incontrati oggi e abbiamo mangiato al Ristorante Cantine Bernardini. (We met today and went to lunch at Restaurant Cantine Bernardini). An excellent Italian lunch lasting for over 2 hours.
