A week in Tuscany
Here's a trip report of my recent holiday in small town Tuscany with my husband and friends. For those looking ideas outside of Florence, this may be of interest.

@Sharyl : Thank you 
A biking trip in Tuscany sounds fantastic; the weather will be perfect (it was bit hot in August). You'll come back with loads of great pics too, can't quite help it, its all so beautiful ! Enjoy.

Suja, thank you, shukria, for your beautiful photos and descriptive captions!! I will be there --too briefly--in June. Arrezzo is now on the list of day trip "musts."

You are all so funny. I can relate to the addiction problem, screen name taken; I really missed the forum while I was off working so much. I promise to finish the "parade float" trip report and will have another installment in a day or two.

There are a couple of monasteries you can stay in at St. Bernard Pass (shown in your first photo). St. Bernard, Simplon and Chateau Verdun.
