We double-dipped on a really delicious lunch for today. They have the best bread- little rolls almost ciabatta like, but very soft. I had chicken sausages with some vegetable that I think were radishes? Uncertain but I have a picture. Then Moira and I accidentally took a hike. We were walking around a neighborhood behind the Duomo (big gorgeous Cathedral) and found one of many Giardinio Communale- public parks that they put on the edge of the cliff because it has a beautiful view (Orvieto is built on the top of a mountain and held up by big rocks/walls). Then we found a spiral staircase and a little trail that goes around the base of the city. We had a guided tour by Claudio- an Italian guy who works with the program. For an idea of what he's like, he was described as "having killed someone in Torino just to see him die." Not really, but a scare tactic to make us behave. Then Nallely and I crisped some leftover pizza in the oven and made a salad for dinner. I had to take a siesta this evening. Here are some pictures:

This is a tart that our land-lady left for us. It is pretty common to have the cookie type crust with fruit on top and a lattice on top. Very good. This tasted like blackberry- maybe currant.

This is Adriana. She brought me to her house, around the corner from ours, to see her window garden.
Precious like gramma!!!
