A few hours in Macerata

Ursi, Alex and I decided to take the bus from San Ginesio this afternoon to Macerata, the biggest little city around and about an hour from SG. We had a fancy lunch at a restaurant recommended by David and Claudia, then walked around, found the tourist info center, so now we know the art supply store is TOO FAR away for us to walk to......so we'll have to come back later in the car.

Thanks all of you who have commented, it's really fun to see your remarks. Ursi hasn't been able to download pictures from her camera for quite some time, so we did it to my computer in SG, then transferred to a memory stick, so now she is trying to upload here onto her blog:AJauntAroundEurope, check it out!

Macerata looks like a fun place for me to come back to on my own, we already walked past an art school, saw a huge theatre and there is a lovely outdoor ampitheater, surely no performances until next summer, darn!

David says that by the end of the week if Fidoka, the internet provider doesn't come up with a proprosal to get us connected, we'll have to do it the way Filippo figured out. So, I won't be online for another spell it looks like.

So far, plenty of nice sunny weather! And lots of good eating too, but that's because Claudia is such a good cook, and of course I have been pulling my weight too. I made a huge potato salad and I swear Alex managed to eat half of it! David commented that he appears to be a bottomless pit, typical skinny young guy!

OK! laters, G
