The Sunday Post is hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated reviewer book blog, and is a post to recap my bookish and non-bookish things from the last week. I'm also linking up to The Sunday Salon hosted by Deb Nance @Readerbuzz.
Happy Sunday!
I got back from Italy late Wednesday night. I'm still dealing with jetlag. The least fun part of the trip, but we had a great time!
We landed in Milan stayed over night then drove to Lake Como, spent two nights there. The fall colors were stunning! From Como we drove back to Milan, turned our car in and took a high speed train to Venice where we met up with our friends. We stayed there two nights and then drove to Tuscany where we rented an apartment in San Gimignano with them. We stayed there the majority of our trip doing day trips to Florence, Montepulciano, Siena, Volterra and other small towns in the region. We broke our time up there by taking a train to Rome and staying two nights. Then back to Milan for a night and flying home. We crammed in a lot in those two and a half weeks: museums, churches, wine tasting, and tours. I just about walked my legs off! We really made the most of our time there! Here's a few photos:

I'm happy to be home, I missed my kitties terribly and I missed being home! I'm back to real life working this weekend. I still haven't wrapped my head around Thanksgiving being next week. I have to work that day, but have Friday and the weekend off.

I obviously didn't get a lot read in the 2.5 weeks I was gone. I didn't have much time to read.

How was your week?
Sounds like you had a great time in Italy and those autumn colors look stunning! I also like that picture of Varenna, Lake Como, that town looks so picturesque! I hope you recover from your jetlag soon and enjoy being back home again.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos from your trip! We were in Italy 3 years ago and I would love to go back.
ReplyDeleteI forgot that The Seven Rings was out. I have listened to the other two on audio so I will have to figure out when I am going to be able to listen to it!
