(May 9, 2015)
I needed a break, mostly because my head cold was coming on strong and I was pretty tired even when I first woke up. So everyone else went out for awhile while I read, slept, and took a bath.

They came home in time for all of us to go out to dinner in our neighborhood. We’d tried for reservations at a couple of places I’d been recommended to online, but they were full up for same day service, so we were winging it.
It turns out we were all a little tired of ‘French’ so we realigned to Italian, and went to Villa Borghese (sorry, no real website to share). This is a nice place, not too far away, with good pasta and great service. Also, not very expensive. We had three pastas, a pizza, starters, water, and a 29 eu bottle of chianti for 125 eu.
Afterwards I. went out for a crepe, the rest of us hung out in our living room talking and reading. A nice quiet day.
