Another adventure to check off the to-do-before-I-die list!
Sunday morning, Andrea and I headed out early to the Grotte di Frasassi caves, where we had signed up for spelunking! For those of you who aren't familiar with the term, (and might confuse it, as I did, for an onomonopeic word meaning "falling splat face-down a large well") it can also be referred to as "potholing" or "caving." Basically, look at the picture - that's not us, we didn't bring a camera - but it might as well have been, yellow and orange mechanics' outfits, mining hats, silly boots and all!

Invigorating, exciting, fun, exhausting! A great experience...and now Andrea's convinced me to go back and try the Advanced Spelunking path. Oh dear. It's a good thing it has a funny name...
3 days and counting till we take off for the U.S.!!!
