What's this?

Checking our gear in the morning. Our van passes me on the road. Is that somebody giving me the finger? Lora arrives in Pienza. Cindy and Liz aren't far behind. Nello walks off with an espresso. A cheese shop. Lynda samples some cheese while Nello tries to figure out where to ditch the espresso cup. Liz, Dara, Cindy, Nello, David, Lynda, and Lora gather at the square in Pienza. Look at the cute doggie behind Lora! A picture from the "magic spot" in the square. There really was a magic spot. I just like this picture, especially the kid. Lora, David, and Lynda on the way to Sant Anna <mumble mumble> Lora is leading the pack ahead of David. Gathered outside of the villa. Still gathered outside. Okay, another cat picture, but isn't it cute? This is even cuter. Brian, Lynda, Liz, and Dara exit the building. Brian and Paulette consult the directions. Paul and I relax with a bottle of wine. We're also usurping David and Geri's balcony. Clair gets a gift of PowerBars, Clif Bars, and the like. Cindy and Lynda are ready for dinner. Okay, Liz, Lynda, and Cindy are ready to hit the town. Paul plays air piano for David, Geri, and claire. Lora shows to Dara how thick her bread slice should be. Liz and Claire. What is that in Claire's hand? Cindy tells a story to Janet, Paulette and Brian. Lora after she falls out of her chair. I have no idea what they're all looking at. Steven and Dara talking to somebody I can't see. Joanne tells a story to Guido while Lynda looks elsewhere. Geri models Claire's necklace. Paul and Liz get cozy. Liz models Claire's other necklace. It's Lorenzo's turn. Now it's my turn. While I'm at it, I grab a couple of women. I have no iea what story Lora's telling, but she has everybody's attention. Liz and Nello. Paul, Lynda, and Geri. Cindy tries to figure what that thing is. Claire doesn't really know, but she knows what it's good for. Alfredo explains that it's a squash. Alfredo's not fond of paparazzi. Now it's David's turn to pose with it. Back to Claire. Lora and Paul enjoying the evening. Cindy poses with a random patron. Nello and Claire. ... Nello begs me, "no more pictures!" Apparently somebody told a good joke. Cindy and Lynda enjoy an afterdinner digestivo. I believe they're drinking limoncello. Claire with an afterdinner smoke. Claire's also drinking grappa. Now Claire's drinking, smoking, and dancing. There's gotta be some rule against that somewhere. Limbo. How low an you go? More late night dancing. Now it's Lora's turn. She's really enjoying herself, isn't she?
