And off to Florence

A small quick blog..... Since it was so windy and all we could do was time and again wet our feet in the water, hoping the sea had got warmer since 3 minutes back,we booked an early table for dinner and drive down to Bolgheri. It's the producer for world renowned vino, and it's just 10 minutes drive from Li. ( hehehe !) btw Li is the district of Livorno which is huge. Our town is Marina de something or the other.
I am not a wine drinker, but the red wine was outstanding. Hint of sweetness and just dry enough to touch the air. It did not do nasty things to my throat, the way dry red wine normally does.
The town itself was charming. We happened on a wedding, the church being in the entrance of the town centre. The small shops, selling local wine and produce. The restaurant was outstanding. Food amazing and the tiramisu passed the quarterfinals in the hunt!
