Staying for two days in Cortona (Tuscany) – a fortified village on a very steep slope – narrow twisty streets – a challenging drive and navigation test – the GPS does not always work well here! Tried to send us down some pretty narrow “un-navigable” lanes!! There is no need for a gym here with these streets (not that I have seen one!). This afternoon we drove to Lago Trasimeno – through some Tuscany country back over the Umbria border. Picturesque but not stunning – quite dry at present and the sunflowers have gone. Expansive views of countryside from Cortona hilltop. This is the town where much on the film “Under the Tuscan Sun” was filmed – the author has her summer house here.
