Stoney GroveDearest Simon,
I've tried to call several times but the phone is always busy. I hope nothing is wrong. I miss you very much. Still, I'm managing to enjoy my trip none-the-less :)
It is impossible not to--Tuscany is beautiful and the art is amazing. I visited Siena today (saw St. Catherine's head) and am off to Florence tomorrow. I'm staying in a beautiful little villa--the Villa Riodi-- on the outskirts of Volterra. It is quite reasonable and has wonderful views of the countryside. I've been spending much more money than I should, but it has been fun! Still, I feel somewhat guilty thinking about St. Clare's virtue of poverty.
My flight gets into Gatwick at 11:30 on Tuesday morning, and I should be back home by early afternoon.
I keep thinking about what you said to me at the airport--it was very sweet. We need to plan a holiday together soon--I feel like I haven't talked to you in ages about anything but the house. Hope it is still standing. I'm looking forward to seeing you soon...
Love you,
Ann
