Vorrei tornare a questi due con un esperto masonary per determinare quando questi si è verificato, anche informarsi non hanno una foto del muro che è recente, prima della presunta crepe! Poi vorrei decidere ciò che è necessario da fare .. also take your time about it, don’t let them rush you.

I have been to Umbria before. Previously we have stayed in Montafalco e in Gubbio, and of course spent a day in Assissi. I got to know Letizia through a friend on Facebook and as a result of befriending her, have gotten to know a whole little circle of friends that live in Umbria. We were already planning a trip to Italy in the fall and I had started making decisions on what we would do and where we would go and had pretty much settled on Val d’Orcia, Bardolino and Liguria, but after meeting all these great people in Umbria I decided to veer off into Umbria for a few days to meet everybody there.

Letizia’s B&B (madonnadelpiatto.com) looks adorable. Have you been to Umbria before, Melissa? I like it better than touristy Tuscany.

I love all Letizia’s ideas! You should be breathing normally again by now with those brilliant suggestions …and after finishing off a couple of glasses of wine! (I feel like the internet is getting smaller and smaller, I “know” Letizia too through the internet and am going to stay at her place in the fall – can’t wait to meet her faccia a faccia! We are just one big happy family aren’t we!!??!)

You have given me some really really great ideas. Grazie tante, Letizia!

The wine solution sounds like a winner, Melissa. At least temporarily!

Ja, Sandee, I know I’m not being a good Dutch girl.

I love the sentence “For a minute the room lacks oxygen” because that is exactly what I was feeling as I read this!
