We landed at 8:46 am in Rome. We were all very tired. We walk to the rail to go to customs and baggage claim. Going through customs I thought they might ask question or at least look at me but they didn't. Once we all found our luggage we set off to find Chef Lorenzo and his staff. And then we had to find a bus that would and could take us to Orvieto. Fitting all of our luggage into this over-sized van or this mini bus (which ever you want to call it) was a definite challenge. While we were loading up I tried to put the handle of my big bag down and it wouldn't go, so I hit it and the plastic broke into about a hundred pieces. But anyway started our journey on the bus. The drivers are crazy!!! But we made it alive. A long the highway there was graffiti everywhere, something I didn't expect.
Along the highway we stop for some coffee(espresso) and cappuccinos. The shots of coffee are tiny, they don't even fill the espresso cups half way.
When we got to Orvieto I thought the bus was going to break down it smell a little after going only half way up the mesa to the packing lot. At the packing lot, we separated the girls and the boys luggage into a small van for it to be taken to our apartments. We took the over ground escalators to town and walked to our apartments. This is our street and our courtyard door.
