Spending an extra night in Italy turned out to be an expensive proposition. The cheapest room I could find was in a B&B about 10 miles or so from the airport for €85, with a €20 cab ride in the morning!

The room was clean, big and with three beds! I shared the room with Darlene as it was easier for both of us. The owner or manager offered to take us into town after we checked in and we took her up on her offer. We found a Courtyard Motel with a restaurant and had lunch. I also noticed they had wifi. I booked five hours of time and spent most of the afternoon on the web (resolving my ticket issue for one, letting the kids know I was delayed, and did some other stuff). Darlene opted to go back to the B&B. When I finally used up all the time it was getting dark. I checked for a decent restaurant, and they were either closed or out of business (as near as I could tell). I took the bus back to the end of the line and walked the mile or so to the B&B. Along the way I looked to the east and saw a beautiful harvest moon rise! I wish I had my big tripod with me as the picture would have been fantastic. I’ve got a copy in my head, so it wasn’t totally lost. I wish I could share it as it was really beautiful.
