Vetulonia is at the tip top of a hill with a view far across the Maremma and especially to the sea. Straight down are deep valleys. This just one town in an area of many towns first settled by the Etruscans. Today you can walk on the road, the Decumano, they built and view the ruins of homes they built. It also has a small but really nice Etruscan museum. The brochure said they also have small restaurants and taverns that serve dishes based on ancient Etruscan and Renaissance but not much was open when we arrived on a Sunday afternoon.

Happy new year Mom and Tom! I'm sure you guys had a great time with some new friends and delicious food. (more about the food on your blog would be great!)
We went to Casa del Mojito with Chris and Gretchen, then after the kids were in bed the four of us played dominoes into the wee hours - it was our first real grown-up new year's eve since babies I think! Very fun.
Here's to a great 2009!
Happy New Year Tom and Denise! Dave and Kathy are thinking of you and will follow your adventures while you're in Italy. We postponed our annual New Years eve prime rib dinner until this Saturday (Jan. 3). We expect to have 15 (+/-) people over for some fabulous food and wine. We will raise our glasses to you both!
Yes, the sleeping bags have the kids' names on them, spelled right and everything! They love them.
