Sitting under the “pergola”* sipping wine, I with my white you with your rosé. The wind gently rustling the leaves, a last streak of sun peeked through the darkening sky.
The children played tag nearby. Soon it would be time for dinner. Relaxing like this after a long day of trekking was the perfect way to pass the late afternoon. Soon though, we would be leaving this corner of paradise, summer vacation was drawing to a close. The children would be returning to school and we to our offices.
“E’ Pronto la cena! Venite tutti!”** the owner of the guest-house called from the terrace door.
