Sorry there have been so few entries on our blog, but we are spending too much time having a good time and the blogging opportuities are very few! This is the day after John's birthday. We had such great celebrations - went to the Uffizi gallery (entailing two hours of queueing to get in, but worth it), rooftop garden champagne party at our hotel with all the group before going to dinner - including birthday cake.
Now over to Christine:
Tuscany is just beautiful (although much warmer than we expected.) We spent today in Siena - a place we have not been to before. It is a continual joy for me to discover works of art I studied all those years ago at Monash. Today it was to rediscover the "Maesta" of Duccio, an early Renaissance artist. It is just the most beautiful serene work. Who knows what might be ahead in our travelling, but now it is time to go to Vespers at the Duomo.

From all the messages from mum as well, it sounds like you're having a wonderful time and well-deserved break. Hope you keep up all the hard work!
Happy birthday John from Saturday but I'm sure mum already passed on our wishes to you.
Keep having fun and sharing your adventures only when you're not too busy!
Hi Mum & Dad-
Firstly Dad- Happy Birthday. What a way to spend it. It sounds like you are having an awesome time!
All here is well. The puppies are having a ball being outside dogs, and enjoying their days lazing in the sun.
Zo had an unexpected interview for an Obsterics & Gynaecology Diploma year for 2008. It went for 2 hours and came out very excited. Will keep you updated. Other than that not much to report. Keep safe and have heaps of fun!
Love to you all.
sorry Mum & Dad,
Work This Way is me...Jeremy.
Oppsie!
