Cortona, Italy - February 2012



We have just returned from an extremely enjoyable few days in Cortona at Fred and Nicki's Wedding.  This was a very scottish affair with a piper and several guests in full highland dress.  The weather was cool but the sun shone and a great time was had by all.  We stayed at the delightful Hotel Italia and had two truly excellent meals at Ristorante La Bucaccia which is without doubt one of the most convivial establishments we have eaten in.  We also managed a trip to Florence and travelled both out and back by train via Paris and Milan, where we also managed a couple of good meals.  More photographs of the wedding can be seen here.
