• Montepulchiano day 1

    June 7, 2024 in Italy ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

    Today is travel day, so I wasn't planning a post. But then we turned up to our beautiful farmhouse overlooking the Tuscan countryside and oh my goodness it is glorious. The pictures don't capture the views. The property is a 200 year old farmhouse set amongst vineyards. Divine!
    What was not divine was our trip here. We hired a Jeep Compass, which shows it will hold one large and one small suitcase. We had 2 x large, 3 x small suitcases and 5 x large backpacks. I figured we would do two trips, even though the round trip to our accommodation was an hour. But the boys were up for a challenge and we squeezed everything and everyone in for a very uncomfortable ride.
    Looking forward to checking out the countryside tomorrow.
