Another Italian Adventure

So tomorrow we are off to London (quiet family visiting, with a Mozart opera at Glyndebourne on Sunday), and then to Lucca.  

As I keep saying, Italy is always a good idea!  Especially in the fall, with summer's warmth collected in the old stone walls, the light intensifying as it goes.

I so look forward to Puccini's Tuscan home, where I have never been.  Music, truffle salami, rambling the city walls . . .  And nearby, historic spas ("land of princes and poets"), Etruscans, and Pinocchio!
