Enjoying lunch in Monteriggioni. We sat in a shaded garden at the back of a restaurant.
We visited the cheese and wine shop for supplies for Happy Hour. We tasted 3 cheeses -pecorino at 3 different ages before deciding which one we liked best. We also bought slices of bread which were cut for us and wrapped beautifully. He then recommended which wine to try.
This is the main piazza of Monteriggioni. Our B & B looked directly across to the 12th century in the picture.
In a garden behind the church, a group of young men are practising their drumming in readiness for the Mediaeval Festival held in July.

Bread, cheese and beer. Sounds like a delightful day!
Is it just me, or does the guy in the shop look like Steven??
