The next adventure

At the end of next week Egyptians celebrate Eid al-Adha, the Festival of the Sacrifice.  The streets of Cairo run red with blood as animals are slaughtered in honour of the Prophet Abraham.

Finn is on holidays for the week, which means I have now joined that group of people that complains about the amount of school holidays their kids have.  I've also learnt my lesson; a three year old at home all day in an apartment is a whole lotta trouble.  So this vegetarian has decided it's time for our next family adventure.

We are off to Italy, where we will spend a few days in Bellagio near Lake Como, then drive down to Tuscany where we are going to chill out on an organic farm.  Finn can run around and pick vegetables while Wilf rolls around on the grass and we relax and drink wine.  That's the plan anyway.

Our final stop is Lucca in Tuscany, where we are planning to fill up our suitcases with Italian food to bring back to Cairo.  We will also be stocking up on baby food for Wilf.  He's eating his own weight in fruit puree at the moment and even the Thermomix can't keep up.

Any suggestions for day trips or activities would be very welcome.
