Locked out, oh no!

This is what happens when it is after 8 pm and I realize…oh, not I haven’t blipped a photo yet! Transition time - the end of phase one of our trip. It was our last day at school and we packed up and shipped our bikes, we will meet up again in a month in Spoleto. We met with a few classmates for happy hour this evening and enjoyed a couple of hours together — in English, senza stress! I hope to stay in touch with some of them. Often, Mike and I cut through the gardens of Villa Bottini to get home. Apparently, they started locking the gates at 8 pm, hence our distress at the locked gate. We had to backtrack to the to the other gate to get out…fortunately it was not locked yet!
