We've arrived!!! Omaha, Dallas,

 Madrid,

Florence

 and then finally in a round about way, we made it to 'our' house in Greve in Chianti!!

We left Omaha at 1:30, Oct. 8.  We made it to house about 6:00, October 9!! Both of us did sleep some on planes but now at 8:30, the beds are looking very inviting. We easily picked up the rental car and the fun began! Sarah drove while I attempted to navigate! After two times of missing the turn we needed (toll plazas are great to make u-turns), we resorted to Google Maps which took us right where we should be - until it was time to find the house number. Maps took us to odd numbered, not 174! So after two drive bys (short, solitary lane), we called and Bryan the host came & led us through the correct open gate then down a unique narrow lane with hills in the background and olive trees on both sides!! We are anxious to explore but think tomorrow will be a rest & organizing day. Softly raining now... lovely sound to go to sleep by!
