Italia
Even though the bus ride from Austria to Venice was 8 hours it seemed to pass so quickly. The drive was beautiful and Toni kept us informed about each region that we went through. The countryside reminded me so much of home. In Tennessee we have a lot of mountains and valleys the way they do in Northern Italy. There is also a lot of agriculture in Italy as well we do in the area I am from in Tennessee. I "almost" got a little homesick, but I got over it pretty fast!
We stopped in Egna, Italy to eat pizza at Pizzeria Lauben. Oh my goodness! That was the best pizza I have ever put in my mouth! They brought us out one pizza for the 4 of us to share. Then brought out another one, then another one, and then one more! We each ended up eating a whole pizza each and 2 glasses of fantastic red wine. There will never be another American pizza that will compare to the one's I ate at Pizzeria Lauben. I compare them every time I eat one.
