Destination #47 & #48 - Assisi & Siena, Italy

It was a bit of a journey over to the small town of Assisi and sadly enough, it was raining when we started our walking tour. We basically went from church to church to church, one of which had Saint Francis (San Francisco) burried. The town was really quaint but had a medieval, game of thrones vibe to it. Before we left, I got myself a pistachio cannoli. Amazing.

Our dinner was at the hotel just by Assisi, which consisted of a really good pasta, and some chicken & fries (a nice break from Italian food). My friends and I were craving some gelato after but the closest thing we had to us was McDonald's so we settled for mcflurries. Sure enough, when we left we noticed a gelato place right across the street.

We had only one night in Assisi so in the morning, we were headed for the town of Siena for a guided tour of the town. After that was done, we went and grabbed some massive slices of pizza for a quick lunch.

We then headed to the hills of the Tuscany region and this was the part I was looking the most forward to. We visited a family run winery where we had wine tastings and a 4 course dinner of bruschetta, penne ragu, meat & cheese (with also some really expensive parmigiana), and an Italian cake. It was amazing and the Tuscan hills are breathtaking.
