We are leaving in a few minutes.
Saw Bernadette while taking out the trash. She says “watch out for the pizza it’s horrible”; she said the people are rude the food is the worst, she skipped breakfast 5 times and the only good meal she had was after she and irene walked for 5 miles to the nearest McDonald’s.

We are calling the cab in 15 minutes and Claire is still reading in her robe and drinking coffee asking if we can leave 10 minutes later.Leia mais

Had a crisis with Claire’s ticket, but they were able to resolve it, although they moved our seats. Tensions were high there for a moment but we recovered. We had to check our bags. Waiting to ask if we can move our seats again at the gate.

We we some curry and rice. I was able to identify the Beatles in the big mural. Claire bought some popcorn.

Good news! After being polite with the Lufthansa staff, I was able to change our seats. We now have a 3 seat section all to ourselves. Aisle, window, and empty between us. 👍Leia mais

Flight to Frankfurt
17 de maio de 2023, Estados Unidos ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C
Small uncomfortable seats. Seat TVs don’t work well and audio is inaudible. Dinner was not bad - meat and potatoes, Claire had pasta. Drank two free glasses of wine but still not great sleep. Maybe a 2-3 sporadic hours of dozing. Impossible to get comfortable. Breakfast was a weird egg salad sandwich and coffee.

Saw the icy east coast of Newfoundland or something out the window, that was really cool.

Claire got a bit more sleep than me. We are talking about trying to stay on local time during our 6 hr layover in Frankfort.

Feeling loopy but in good spirits. Excited to step foot on European floor for the first time.Leia mais

Frankfort 2
17 de maio de 2023, Alemanha ⋅ ☀️ 16 °C
We got a new flight from here to Pisa for the morning. Was an really terrible experience. Hundreds of people with flights canceled, clamoring for answers and help. They booked us a hotel nearby and gave us some taxi vouchers. When w get there, another long line.

Finally we get to the room. Then I discover I left my phone charger at the airport, so neither of us can charge our phones. Big problem, trying to decide if I should walk to a possible electronics store, but we don’t want to split up and Claire is exhausted. Conflict ensures and I leave the room with the goal to return with a solution no matter what.

Ultimately I borrowed the charger of a guys wife who I meet in the lobby. We have dinner together. He is a pastor from Utah but not a Mormon. He gives me some advice on relationships and women and he quotes Christian rap. I was so tired. EventuallyLeia mais

Frankfort to Pisa
18 de maio de 2023, Alemanha ⋅ ⛅ 7 °C
At Frankfort airport again. Got up at 3:20am this morning. Tired. Got some new phone chargers and are a delicious panini. A lot of people here are on standby for flights after yesterday’s situation, so I’m feeling lucky that we have secured flights out of here. Claire is on the phone with her credit card to try and get reimbursed for the full airfare because of the delays. She’s filing claim forms now. Plane should start boarding soon. Hope we can start having fun and put the flight delays behind us once we get to Pisa.Leia mais

Pisa to Florence
18 de maio de 2023, Itália ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C
Flight to Pisa in a tiny plane over the alps 🙀. Then explored a bit of Pisa for a few minutes before taking the train to Florence. Languid countryside, lots of old stucco homes with small olive or grape orchards.

The building we’re staying in is truly ancient with old statues and an 1930s elevator. The apartment is like an archeologist’s study. Fancy with a little view of the river.

Walked around, ate some pasta and apperol spritz. Went to grocery store. Claire went to a book store. Then a lot of sleep.Leia mais

Florence morning
19 de maio de 2023, Itália
Woke up, ate some crackers and cheese. Drizzling outside like on the fateful day that Michelangelo invented the pizza.

Took a little walk around the neighborhood.

Florence Tour
19 de maio de 2023, Itália ⋅ 🌧 16 °C
Really neat educational tour from a British lady named Kate. Learned about all the buildings. Wish I could say more but after the David, the “private collection” at the Bellini Airbnb, and gelato, I am bushed. David was big. Buildings old. Florence has much history.

Oh, we ate prosciutto sandwiches from the place Conan and Shlansky went to.Leia mais

Claire’s Corner: Trattoria Sabatino
19 de maio de 2023, Itália ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C
The Friday night mood was festive and relaxed as we queued for almost an hour next to a 13th-century gate. Locals drank aperol spritzes in line, laughed with their friends, and even made out a little. We wondered if the spikes on the medieval wall were for impaling decapitated heads or a less grisly purpose. Ollie gamely embraced the social challenge of a communal table with non-English speaking Italians and the busy, no-nonsense wait staff. We ate minestrone soup with puréed beans, rice, kale. Tortelli con patate al sugo. Vino della casa. Some Florentine steak and tender, roasted potatoes with caramelized edges. I wish I spoke Italian.Leia mais
