Bologna and Orvieto Day 3

Italian train is very laid back. First it was delayed 20 min. then 25 min. then finally about an hour. But no one knew what was going on. Luckily we had no agenda except going to Orvieto from Bologna that day so we totally enjoyed our train ride to Orvieto.

On the train, I took the photo of some Italian scenery. I don't speak Italian but I speak famous attitude of taking photos with random people in everywhere! This random Italiano had Japanese writing shirt on! How can JP miss this opportunity of taking a photo with him??!!After the fun ride, we got to Orvieto! Yattah! Orivieto is an amazing town! You have to ride this cute cable car to go up the hill and there it is! More about Orvieto http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orvieto It reminded me of Kyoto in Japan a little bit. How they kept things from 1200 and how they have pride in their beautiful town. This is the Post card I bought to send it to my husband so that I can have it in the future, too : ) My friend booked this amazing and cute apartment for us!!! We met our famous, amazing, talented and kindest friends who are playing at Umbria Jazz Festival for a week. (The purpose of why we were in Orvieto! Thanks to them for bringing us there!) http://ujw16.umbriajazz.com/mediacenter/home.aspx
