JUNE 7- ARRIVO AREZZO





• Another beautiful day in the Tuscan Hills – top of 33 degrees today so warming up! Time to explore Arezzo. This town was the setting for Roberto Begini’s La vita ‘e bella film. My friend Skye informs me it’s also the home of Jeffrey Smart (a brilliant artist, whose work we both love and whose work I’m unlikely to afford in this life time).
• At the top of this town, there are beautifully landscaped gardens with a few bars open. I sat in the park for a while just taking in the views of Arezzo;
• The Cathedral’s, Piazza’s and museums are all worth checking out (although a couple were under renovation and filled with scaffolding).
