Tivoli which has the Gardens of the Villa D' Este. This was an optional experience which means you pay extra for it. We decided not to do this, because there are some other excursions coming up that we'd rather spend our money on. The gardens were supposedly amazing and beautiful, which I'm sure they were. Instead, we, another couple, and our tour guide walked the streets of this charming town for a bit, and then found a place for cappuccinos and fresh croissants. We also found a fresh food market and bought fresh figs which were delicious. We did a little more exploring in that town and then got on the bus and proceeded to our place for the next two nights--a beautiful hotel in Puglio in the southern part-- right in the heel of the boot. This bus ride took the rest of the day. We had two "comfort stops"-- in other words get out and pee, and we stopped at the British Commonwealth War Memorial. What a beautiful spot and so well taken care of. Tonight we had dinner at the hotel--again, lots of amazing food. Tomorrow we are foregoing another optional experience and we're going to walk around the town and spend some time in the beautiful pool at the hotel.
