Gualdo Tadino's finest - so far!

Alora, abbiamo arrivato in Gualdo Tadino, anche a la casa, “Domus Nova”, nuestro casa fuori casa nuestro per gli prossimi sette giorni. (Mi dispiace se la mia lingua italiana sono bruta.)

So, we have arrived in Gualdo Tadino, and at the house, “New Home” our home away from home for the next seven days.

It's a trifle more rural than we perhaps expected, and is certainly more “green” as we can't see the wood for the trees from where we are sitting now. There is also a tiny wee problem with Zanzare, or mozzies to you and me. This year has apparently been a really bad one as there was a wet spring and a hot, hot summer. It was still over 30 deg C this afternoon.

There is a saving grace however in that there is a pool! Downside is that you have to share it with a myriad of insects. Some are saveable, and get chucked out by yours truly, but others seem to turn up their toes ( or whatever ) as soon as they land in the water. (Which was 29 deg C @ 14:00 hrs today.) A selection of the local residents appear in today composite, some living and some having gone to meet their maker. What a clever guy he (she) must have been to be able to put these miniscule bits together to form such beautiful wee biters.

Those that have escaped the pool are now running the gauntlet of the local bats, of whom there are many.

Jesus, I can't stop self slapping. Need to retire indoors, me thinks.

Until tomorrow dear friends, and acquaintances . . . . . .
