Today we left Rome. It was sad for a minute but then we entered Tuscany. The Tuscan countryside is gorgeous! I definitely want to come back here some day and explore some more. We stopped in a little Tuscan town called Orvieto. It was gorgeous! The Duomo in town was by far my favorite so far! The outside was so ornate, and it was stripped. I love stripes.
After Orvieto we drove on to Cortona. Cortona was so cure. I will need to go back there. It is in a prime location between Rome and Florence. It would be a perfect vacation spot. Cortona had the Medici fortress and some really neat cathedrals. In Cortona we had our first group dinner. It was fun. The menu was set so I was out of my comfort zone. But I stepped up and tried not to worry that I hadn't chosen my own meal. I enjoyed everything we had. Of course I went and got gelato after dinner. I cannot explain how amazing this dessert is! I may just spend all of my money on gelato, and I wouldn't mind!
