Sunday 27th April.(by Leon)

It seems the weather is here to stay, as we awoke to another brilliant Tuscan sun in the sky. We had promised our land lady that we would shift some rocks that were in an unsightly pile by the driveway, rather than just shift them though we decided that we would build a Barbeque from them so after a few attempts and with expert designing by Belinda we managed to put together what we thought was a pretty good looking out door Barbie, it remains to be seen if the land lady likes it also, as it may still be that we will shift the rocks again in the future.

While the building activity was going on we were also reproducing the delectable meal I had had a few days before at Bolgheri, I am happy to say that we managed to copy the recipe fairly well and that evening we sat down to a delicious meal of slowly broiled beef in red wine, balsamic vinegar and some other secret herbs and spices. It was a very nice end to a productive day under the Tuscan sun in which we had placed an Aussie stamp on Casa Cantante. ;-)
