Day 10


Must say the home cooked meal was good but nothing in comparison to the 3 hour Italian Sunday dinner we experienced with Mom’s family.  Here is the menu:
Lunch 12p – 3p (not an exaggeration)

Items listed in order of presentation:
  • -       Non-alcoholic Compari
  • -       Umbrian Bruschetta
  • -       Vino Rose Frizzante
  • -       Lasagna con Fungi
  • -       Insalata and Turkey Roulade
  • -       Crème Amaretto
  • -       Dessert Wine
  • -       Caffe with your choice of liquor

Need I say more? Following dinner we toured a museum and then went to Lucca’s girlfriend’s country house. Well it turns out that this house was a convent and outside of the convent is a cave that St. Francis Asissi slept in on his famous pilgrimage through Italy. You have to see pictures to believe this. This was better than the museum. We had dinner at this site and learned that the house is haunted. The ghost’s name is Raymond and we heard all the tails of about Raymond’s haunts. Paolo (girlfriend of Lucca) was very serious talking about this. It was too much too process!
