I'm off to Italy this evening for an, I hope, relaxing and fun week of art, shopping, getting lost, not being able to understand anything anyone is saying other than 'ciao,' and watching jealously as my in-laws consume amazing mozzarella. [I'm bringing a shaker of vegan parmesan with. Isn't that sad.] I've rented a road bike in Florence and Saturday am looking forward to an epic ride through Tuscany. It will be weird not to be riding every day. Ciao!
