A leisurely drive on both secondary and autostrade routes took us through Tuscan and then Umbrian countryside to the town of Assisi. The province of Umbria bills itself as the "Green Heart of Italy" for good reason – lots of hills and valleys covered with crops and orchards.

We approached Assisi from the west, and our condo lies to the east of town. After climbing the hill to town and navigating around then through this Medieval city, we found ourselves on a winding road leading east. After many turns, not all of them correct, we found ourselves at our condo, Carpediem Assisi Living Club (RCI resort #3573). Whilst signing in, Kelly and Andy walked in. We hardly recognized our daughter! Five months of cycling had a very positive effect on her physique and she had a beautiful tan as well.

We spent the rest of the day sharing memories of our trips and planning our next several days. There were a few places Kelly and Andy wanted to show us, and a few new places we all wanted to explore.
