Wine Tasting and Dinner in Siena

Once in Siena we found ourselves wandering all over the place, but for the two nights we had a wine tasting scheduled followed by trying to find a place to eat. We tried two different restaurants over the two days and both were excellendt. The wine tasting was great fun and led by a local with one heck of a nice wine collection. While eating dinner one night there was a race going on between the different districts of Siena and I managed to step out the door just in time to get piled into by one of the runners who was trying to dodge a waitress. Fortunately I think I outweighed him by about 30 pounds and he bounced off me and staggered down the alley cussing me out in Italian. Oh well, got to meet the locals somehow I guess. Debra and I had a great view from our hotel room of the morning sunrise. Great way to wake up.
