Hi Monika,
We finally made it home after an absolutely wonderful time in Italy.
Thank you once again for a tremendous day with you. It definitely was a
highlight for us.
Here are some photos for you and a couple more are coming when I find them.

Buongiorno Monika,
I wanted to say how very special you made our trip to Siena and how much we enjoyed the tour with you. We didn’t allow for any more time to tour but were so pleased with our day. I will be writing to Kellyann to tell her how grateful we are that she got us in contact with you.
We managed to drink most of the wine we purchased along the way, with the exception of a couple of bottles. And of course I look forward to receiving my bottles of Vin Santo from Fernando. If you speak with him please thank him again for his graciousness and all of the treats we experienced. Also to our first location with the bottles of Chianti Classico and olive oil. I do not have the name of the lovely lady or her father with me here at work today, but that was also a beautiful stop. I managed to bring one of the bottles from there home with me to enjoy with friends here.
Grazie mile!

Hi Monika,
We have returned safe and sound from our London/Paris/Tuscan adventure and are now resuming our Aussie lives. Thank you for making our visit to Tuscany so interesting and such fun. We enjoyed Chianti very much and look forward to paying another visit in the future.
You will be pleased to know that the Italian Post is working well and we have received both packages. The first one arrived the day after we flew in and the second arrived last Thursday (18th). All were intact so Ian was relieved. I think they both came by Air not sea.
Hope all is well with you and that the children are happily back at school.
I have survived the night duty but am still regaining my time clock.
Thanks so much for the experience.
Fond regards,
Sue and Ian

Hi Monika! Thank you for sending all the pictures! I am forwarding them to Jourdan and Ashlie. They will be so surprised at how much Lisa and Lucca have grown! They are such beautiful children...please give them our love! Your new vehicles are wonderful! You must be really busy, but that is a good thing? How is your husband? Is he still at the big restaurant in Florence? Please tell him how much we crave his lasagna!!! Your new logo is lovely! Is it the painter that you introduced us to in that little town? We bought some lovely prints there. I am going to give my friends, Pam and Keith Kramar, your email address so that they can coordinate with you. They will be coming in September, so I hope that you will be available. Send Fernando our love too...we think of all of you so often and can't wait to return! Actually, Ashlie and I could just move to your area and be perfectly happy for the rest of our lives! Tanto Saluti Denese

Howdy Monika!
The tour we took with you last fall, was truly one of the highlights of my one and only time away from the U.S. Both Liz and I have mentioned your service to our clients especially the ones considering trips to Italy. Your knowledge of the area villages, and local residents made our day with you so very special.
Your web site will be very helpful so we now have a place for people to look at when we talk about our trip with you. If you need a word of recommendation to include in your web site, please feel free to use my comments here or Liz and I will write up something for you to use.
Thanks for responding to Liz's inquiry about her painting, and your kind words.

Ciao Monika!
It is so great to hear from you! It brings me back to Italy, I miss those days so much. Life here is crazy. I am living in Manhattan and graduate in May. I'm currently looking for a summer job. I don't want a real job because I hope to travel from September until December. I'm thinking Australia and New Zealand!!! I'm working at Warner Brothers right now...I'm specializing in publicity for movies! It is very exciting work and I'm alway SO busy. We have a movie coming out this Friday called 10,000 B.C. so the office is crazy now.
It sounds like you're expanding your business! What a wonderful job you have, driving around the Tuscan countryside...I am very jealous! How are your children doing? They must be growing up so quickly. Do you have any fun travel plans or anything special ahead? I know that Spring and Summer must be your busy season though...
Anyway, let me know how everything is! Your tour was one of my favorite days all year and I remember it often and smile :)
Hope to hear from you soon,

Good Morning Monika!
Thank you for sending me all the information, and the links to the web
sites of your friends. I love looking at them, it takes me back to so
many beautiful memories!
I think I'll hold off on ordering olive oil. Megan still laughs at the
memory of Mama Gina laughing hysterically at the thought that it takes
me months to finish one bottle of olive oil, it takes Mama Gina days. I
must admit that I am using us so much more in my cooking since visiting
Italy.
I am imagining you helping your friends at the festival . . . someday I
would love to see that. I find myself feeling so peaceful and happy
whenever I mentally take myself back to those days of visiting your
beautiful country.
I have visited Fernando's website, and his guestbook page is still being
worked on. I would love to add my name to the list of those who have
visited his winery. Please give him our best.
Our weather in Seattle is becoming quite nice and we are enjoying our
new home.
All the best as always,
Peggy
