Beginnings

Susan & John’s Excellent Adventure began in 2010 on our first trip to Italy. Over about 3 weeks, we went from Rome to Tuscany to Cinque Terre. As we sat in the jet that would take us back to the States, we both commented that this was the first vacation where neither of us wanted to return. From that day, we’ve been waiting for retirement to remove the constraints on our time that would allow us come back for as long as European Union immigration policies would allow. Turns out, in our case, that’s 3 months. So, we’re in the Tuscan town of Colle Di Val d’Elsa (hill in the valley of the Elsa river) for the next 90 days.
