Toscana, October 2008

Based in a farm with a view of San Gimignano, we visited not only the Chianti vineyards by Castellina, Radda, Lamole, Volpaia and Panzano, but also the nearby Toscana sites. San Gimignano, Sant’Anna in Camprena (yes, The English Patient fans, yes!), Pienza, Abbazia di Sant’Antimo, Monte Olivieto, Siena, Florence. October 2008.

Mallorca, June 2008

Staying in a fancy adult hotel in Cala Mesquida, we made a few road trips and hikes in the surprisingly remote (by contrast to the beaches?) mountains of Mallorca, especially in Serra Tramuntana, but also in some of the coastal hills. June 2008
