Janice and I are looking forward to our trip to Tuscany and Rome in early October. We are staying about 15 miles from Sienna. We are going with three friends from Santa Ynez Valley and staying at the house of one of our trip mates sister. I don't believe there is a book about Tuscany we haven't bought. Expect to visit most of the major towns and eat well. We have a chef and wine expert coming one night to prepare a feast for us.
