Very quiet day – washing, reading, packing etc in anticipation of leaving tomorrow for Rome and on Sunday morning (early) Iceland. Morning flights always seem like such a good idea until you factor in the two hours beforehand for check in. In this instance though not a lot of choice – Iceland isn’t exactly a high volume route!

We had dinner out last night to celebrate my finish at university. Despite what seemed like very hard slog at times, my results were good – italian exams are marked out of 30 (🤷‍♀️ no idea why) but I got 27/30 for the grammar part of the course and 30/30 for the culture/oral part of the course and was extremely pleased. Particularly with the result for the oral part of the course as I found it so hard.

So we had a hearty meal of pasta, osso bucco (john) and duck with bilberries (me) in a lovely osteria not far from the Campo. The snow had basically gone but there was the odd patch of ice here and there to look out for.

Today was wet and much warmer (12C – balmy!). Off out tonight to another nice place we tried last weekend just down the street from our apartment.

A few pics from yesterday…last pics of Torre del Mangia!
