Vacation 2007
Our vacation this year brought us in Tuscany. I had never been there before, but had heard a lot of good things. Tuscany was supposed to have always beautiful weather and also have a lot of culture and antiquities. Something I am very interested in. Well, those assertions proved to be ever so right. Temperatures were scorching, 30 degrees Celsius and up, and about the culture stuff, you just couldn't miss it. To cool down we fortunately had a swimmingpool on our camping. Besides that we were very near to the sea, so swimming is what we did a lot. On alternate days we took our time to visit towns in the neighbourhood, towns like Siena, Massa Maritima, San Gimignano, Suvereto, Sassetto and also paid a visit to Rome. It's way too much to see in a day (Rome I mean), we just sniffed a little of what the city has to offer. Absolutely have to go there again and then stay for a number of days to really take our time and see things. I'm glad though we went there. The city we missed altogether is Florence, have to do that some other time. So, concluding I can say, that Tuscany was a very positive experience, definitively a place to visit again.
