This was the first morning I left the apartment very early to walk around my neighborhood and have a couple of coffees here and there. After my lesson, I met Greg and we walked across the river to Casalinga for lunch, in the Oltrarno, just off the square in front of Santo Spirito. I remembered the very kind waiter there, from years past, and, as always, lunch was delicious: papardelle con il sugo di chinghiale. After lunch we meandered back home through the center.

I am heading out now for some photography, in spite of the dark, gray skies. Happy to say, no rain. . .
