Montepulciano Day 5

We did a hike outside the walls of Montepulciano to Church of Maria Querce. When we got about 3km into the hike, there was a turn off to Sant Albino town which Ruby decided would be a more interesting walk and when she showed me that the town had a patischeria, I was convinced to make a detour. It was a much prettier walk, but also more difficult. We left the gravel path to walk in wet, muddy and hilly paddocks, even having to cross a stream.
We stopped when a farmer conveniently placed a trailer in the paddock for us to sit and have second breakfast. As we were eating the grey clouds loomed in the direction of our hike, and darkened. The clouds and forecast of rain eventually chased us back to Montepulciano. We abandoned the idea of walking to Sant Albino and headed back.
When we arrived at our apartment, I realised with horror that I had locked the keys in the apartment. Best solution for any problem is to sit and mull the problem over lunch. The host kindly brought the keys to our lunch venue which was 80m from the apartment.
