We will have been back from Italy a week tomorrow. Time has flown. We had a fantastic 9 days staying with Martin and Tina in their apartment in Orvieto; they were brilliant hosts and looked after us so well. Something of a miracle that we got there because I took Leo's passport to the airport and not Jane's! Fortunately Bob Kershaw did a mercy dash with the right passport and got to Bournemouth airport with 3 minutes to spare.
We didn't do a great deal but we did manage to see Balsena, Civita, Assisi and a couple of other places including Martin and Tina's villa near Pozzuolo. It was a bit of a treat to see the Corpus Christi 
celebrations in Orvieto from M and T's balcony! The main thing was for Jane to have a change of scene and air and a chance to rest.

There's a lot more there than the leaning tower and we found a fantastic restaurant too. Bit of a scrum at passport control in the airport but at least we had the right passports.
Both Lydia and Leo are home at the moment so the house feels kinda full. Jane has a trip to the hospital next Monday. Her swollen ankles are calming down and so, to compensate, she now has shingles - it's not slowing her down much - but that's Jane!!
Love to all.
