Hi everyone, 

 

I'll be off tomorrow, Friday and Monday as I will be attending a wedding in a tiny village in Tuscany! In case any of you know it, and have any suggestions of things to see there, let me know - however, with the wedding festivities, I will have little time to stroll around, if any at all sweat_smile

It's going to be really hot, 35°C and 37°C on the days of the wedding and the post-wedding pool party, which is way too much for me ... any advice on how to deal with the excessive heat and make sure I can enjoy my time in the Italian countryside? 

 

If you need to raise anything to the Community Team during that time, @Marjo will be around; if you send me a Private Message, please keep in mind that I'll pick it up only when I'm back on Tuesday 13th August Smiley Happy

 

I hope you'll all have a great end of the week, and I'll be bringing you some photos back!

 

WaveSee you soon! Wave

Hey guys, 

 

I hope you all had a nice weekend! I'm still catching up with my emails, notifications and PMs, but I thought I'd take a few minutes to share some pictures of my trip with you now wink Everything went really well, the area we were in in Italy was stunning, but I have to say that being close to 40 degrees everyday was a bit much for me!

 

A few pictures of the town I was staying in, Citta di Castello:

A couple of the wedding itself and the location, Lippiano castle:

And finally some from the second day of wedding celebration, at a Villa closeby:

@Cleoriff That was actually a tambourine! Every guess had one, which was nice at first, but as the night went on ... not so much joy

 

The menu was delicious, I never had so much truffle in my entire life! I really appreciated they cattered to vegan diets as well, since we were more loosely being vegetarian the rest of the time, with menus not being descriptive enough to follow any strict diet.

Hello @EmilieT 

 

Pleased you had a good time & the wedding days a great success

Your photos of the town, countyside & wedding are simply stunning ... how I'd like to wander about there ... with an old fashioned parasol, of course LOL

The wedding all looks very stylish ... & ... super fantastic for being outside in the sunshine

 

What was your outfit like on the wedding day, please ?

 

It's good to have you back here smiling
