Into each life some rain must fall.

Today it rained. We were given four options: visit a winery, visit Verona, stay at the hotel or bike. Most folks, including Jay, went for the winery tour; I was the only one who decided to bike. So one leader and I went out to brave the elements. We had about 12 km of drizzle, followed by about 8 km of serious rain, then about 12 km of dry weather to the lunch spot near Lake Garda. It was actually a very nice ride. About half the group decided to ride back to the hotel after lunch, and the weather held off. Tomorrow, our sendoff day, is supposed to be sunny.

Tonight is our farewell dinner here at the hotel, and tomorrow we return to Germany after a short bike ride. The trip has been great, and I hope to post lots of pictures after I solve my technical problems.

glad you had the poncho! Look forward to photos and hearing more. We enjoyed Provence and had a few hints of rain, but none interfering with riding. It was a little cooler than expected with a morning start in the 40's...brrrr....
