Chianti Surprise

Ok so we were actually in Chianti, in a town called Panzano. Actually just 2km outside of this little villlage. And we are loving being here.
Here are some shots of the local terrain and vineyards.



The weather has turned for us. Actually did that in Athens on the 24th of April. Went into the 20's then the next day it was 27. Here in Chianti it is 27 every day now. Temp at night is very much deck weather for Canadians. Maybe going down to 12 or 15. Not too bad if there is no wind. Deeds and I had a bottle of Classico last nite. Was very very nice. So we will continue on our merry way here until we leave on May 2. Oh, did I forget to tell you that we have a little bit of a surprise. Yes the surprise is we are not continuing on in Europe and at this time we are not flying back directly to T.O. from Italy.
Diane has been asked to go and consult on a piece of work for one week in Curacao. So we have decided to end our Italy journey on May 2 and head to Wilemstead, Curacao for a week and a bit. Diane will be doing some work from 7th to the 11th. Rest of the time will be beach and sun. Something we know how to do. At this time Lena plans to join us on May 5.
We told you that we were going to just go with the flow once we had been through the major piece of the return trip and here is the proof. The chance to get to Curacao was just to big of an opportunity for us to refuse. So that is how the balance of our return trip is shaped.
We have scheduled our return to Canada for May 13, Sunday. Might even be considered as a week ahead of schedule. So that is our news I will update with all the pics from Chianti, tell you how much wine we are bringing home, where Lena is and what it looks like in Curacao.
Ciao for now.
Oh, here are a few pictures of the bed and breakfast in Panzano, just to whet your appetite.

Bon appetito




Ciao
