What is it about their pasta that makes it so different than ours? And the pizza too? Why can't we have things like that here?

We have been to Florence and Pisa but not Sienna or Lucca.<br />I enjoyed seeing the food you ate and hearing history and seeing your great photos. I like how you wonder off the beaten path and see how the locals live. One night in Florence we ate in a restaurant that was family owned and didn't see any tourists just regulars from the area. That was very enjoyable.<br />I look forward to your post on Cinque Terre since we haven't been there. I would love to go back to Italy.<br />Reread your first post on Italy this morning, also. I enjoyed it again as well.Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09559612002837383953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291995956909405154.post-33449390593382823152018-06-22T08:01:49.141-05:002018-06-22T08:01:49.141-05:00Un billet merveilleux, un très grand merci de part...Un billet merveilleux, un très grand merci de partager les photos de ce fabuleux voyage, je pense que vous en avez un super souvenir.
