Today was our last day in Cortona and we spend it relaxing and doing whatever we pleased. We slept in a little. Well Katie slept until 9 and I woke up at 8:00 when Jul called me to say goodnight :)
Once we got up we went down to the bar to get our due doppio cappuccini and brioche. We sat in the piazza for two hours watching the moms with strollers with kids eating gelato for breakfast. After breakfast we toured the town. We walked up the steep, steep hills, saw multiple little churches, climbed up a million steps and ventured through a bunch of little streets and alleyways all the while singing Calvary Church songs.
After our expedition we grabbed a bit to eat at a little cafe and headed in for siesta. Then, this evening we walked the town a little and eat dinner at the same place we ate lunch the first day. They had a great Tuscan vegatable soup. After dinner Katie and I spotted through a little archway the sunsetting so we hightailed it over to the edge of town to see it. It was beautiful. We took tons of pictures so I am not even going to try to describe it. Just see for yourself below.
Tomorrow morning Katie and I are headed to Montepulciano for one night and then off to Cinque Terre again. I'm not sure if we will have internet so this might be the last update for a few days.
Hope you all are having a great summer. We will be home in 10 days to share more pictures and stories. We can't wait.
