Sarteano
Day 7 started out with a drive to Sarteano to explore the open air market.
Sarteano should really should be renamed Citta piena di gatti (town full of cats) as we saw numerous cats… or I should say gattos.
We found Sandy’s Caffe on one of the small streets and decided to have a cappuccino. We met up with Jimi & Amy. Jimi was excited about finding fresh porcini mushrooms.
Later we drove out to the Etruscan Tombes.
I was disturbed to find condom wrappers on the ground. Littering yes, but who would go to a tomb site to… nevermind.
Monticchiello
For lunch we had reservations at La Porta in Monticchiello. The fresh porcini salad and the beef cheeks were outstanding.
Dinner was left in the very competent hands of Jimi, who made a great chicken dinner.
After dinner we helped make sandwiches for our trip into Rome. This was our last night at the villa.
