• Barbaresco Day 4

    August 31, 2024 in Italy ⋅ ☁️ 72 °F

    An early morning walk through La Vedetta’s vines and hazelnut groves. Breakfast on the terrace then off to the mountains. We needed some wild nature and cooler air and we found it. An hour and a half west we discovered waterfalls, hiking trails, cows with bells, and jagged mountain peaks. It was beautiful. Mountain villages with slate roofs, stone exteriors and bright flowers in window boxes. It was a perfect day! Back to our place for appertivos on the terrace, a swim, and headed to Neive for dinner at an ivy covered hotel near a beautiful church. Dinner was wonderful. As we were leaving we got word that the leak had been found. Turns out a 31 year old toilet might have issues:) thanking God that it wasn’t a main line or in the sprinkler system which would have been much harder to find. Off to see the Matterhorn from the Italian side tomorrow!Read more
