Last day memories

Friday afternoon waiting for Carla

Porsche and Ferrari siteing ( both very nice )

Friday was our last night in our wonderful villa in Montespertoli. Everyone looked forward to Carla arriving with dinner preparations. What an experience she was. The fabulous food she prepared was beyond description. She also brought gifts for each of the ladies. I'm sure each of us will think of her every time we use her ceramic piece. I really hope to see her again and she will be in our memories forever.
On Saturday, we all got to explore Rome again in a more relaxed pace. Our hotel at the Spanish Steps was very nice and close to all the restaurants, fountains and shopping area. Dick and I found the Ferrari store for some 'manly' shopping for a change. For some reason, in all the stores the ladies took us to and all the patience all the guys had, we somehow was abandoned in this store. I did find us a car photo op.

The trip back on Sunday went without a hitch with exception of the sad feeling of our friends going their separate way.

This trip with everone was very enjoyable and special. Pam and I miss all of you and the laughter that was shared.

Our hope is that we can all look forward to getting together again very soon.

And, Charleston's Cooper River bridge run is not as far off as we think. Plus, I need that long to get back out of my Italy debt.

Ron and Pam
