Fair Italy! Thou art the garden of the world, the home Of all Art yields, and Nature can decree; Even in thy desert, what is like to thee?

Sailing in Elba

Spent the last few days sailing around Elba, an island off the coast of Tuscany. We went with three friends from EUI (including Aaron and Renee from our trip to Nice) and were hosted by Will, a former EUI student who is now finishing his PhD in law. His boat was very similar to that of Mimz + Greg, and was a very nice break from the city. We had great weather both days, and all jumped into the water - still warm even in October! Too bad we didn't have snorkels, because the water was full of pretty fish. Day two was a bit rougher, and yours truly did some heaving off of the side of the boat. But it was still a great way to spend the weekend.

Also ate some squid ink risotto - see below!
