We have arrived. It has been the usual profound distortion of space and time, and with the 5-hour layover in Dallas, about a 20-hour journey. Cousin Gabriella and her husband Pietro fetched us from the airport at Pisa and drove us to Lido di Camaiore, where we will be staying for the next few weeks. We went out for pizza at the only place along the beach promenade that we found open - how different it all looks in the winter!
Today's glitch: Nancy's checked bag didn't make the (rapid) transfer in London, and we are expecting to drive ourselves back to Pisa to pick up it up tomorrow.
The nice lady downstairs offered to pick up some groceries for us while she was out (in consideration of our jet lag) and returned a while later with milk, bread and prosciutto as well as a gift of a panettone in honor of our visit. Very sweet.
That's all I can manage for now, as my brain is fading out. 7:57 AM California time; 4:57 PM Lucca time.
