For one idyllic week, our merry band of 10 lolled poolside, took field trips (or stick-shift driving lessons, for some of us!) to Orvieto (mostly for the gelato), Assisi and Spoleto, played some rousingly divisive board games, survived a freak storm with high-force tree-toppling gales, and planned (though never executed) an epic still-shot-movie telling the sad story of our tower ghost Lucia (even if, to our eternal bitterness, it turned out to be a HOAX perpetrated by certain LIARS!).

dorks having tea in the Sahara (you know, like in the song)
