Day six...tues

Woke to amazing sunshine. Another glorious day. Today Paul drove to Cortona..a 20 min drive. Another hill town surrounded by a wall. Found a great parking spot and started to walk up. First stop was for Gelato.  Started walking by all the shops on both side of the street. Arrived at the main square. We found a neat wine shop and got a nice bottle of wine..Syrah from Cortona. Very nice. Started to explore the town and climbed up the streets and down the streets. And found a church. Surprise ,surprise .. Then we found a street that we thought led back to stores but ended up going to another church. We started climbing and climbing and then refused to give up.  We were almost there and we met a couple from Toronto who said it was worth the effort. The church was beautiful and worth the climb. We thought we would see what was on the next hill up and wished we hadn't bothered. Then we had to walk all the way down which is sometimes harder. Met up with Bob and Delores and had lunch. Paul and I went into a little bar and had a great coffee. I walked out first and Paul tried to leave but had forgot to pay so he got stopped. Too funny. Another beautiful day with lots of walking. Home for a light dinner and skip Bo.the boys beat us two games.
