Lucca, swimming and farewell dinner.

Leonardo da Vinci’s home town and a multinational water polo match. Lots of good food too.

Michaelangelo’s statue of David and Italian cooking plus a little shopping.

Chocolate, wild boar, shopping, confetti, olive oil and gelato made up today’s activities in Pistoia.

The Leaning Tower and swimming in the Ligurian Sea

Food, Medieval fighting, food, pool, friend making, funicular and more food. That’s all for today.

We make it to Rome and tour the ancient ruins in sweltering 97-degree heat.

We’re going with Griffin to Italy in June - the last of our four grandkids to travel with us.
