DAY 4: Saturday 5th July
After a very restful night, (I think we were practically the only ones in the hotel) we carried on with our journey and headed to our holiday home just out of Bagni di Lucca. The motorway from Bologna to Florence is pretty scary, or is that pretty and scary. Because we had plenty of time we decided to stop off for lunch and head for a nearby lake. On the same turn off, there just so happened to be a Designer Outlet and I managed to persuade Graham that at least there we were sure to find something to eat. The shopping centre was like walking into a film set, beautifully laid out with bridges to cross and piped soft music. Not very Italian I know, but we did have some Italian food, which although we couldn’t quite work out what it was, tasted good and filled the gap in our stomachs!
