After 3 flights and a beautiful 30 minute drive, we are in a gorgeous villa on a hill overlooking italian countryside.
First, a quick note about the plane ride. Now, you know we were not in first class - which was fine by us. But what was not so fine was how we were repeatedly reminded that we were NOT in first class. Wendy was scolded by a flight attendant - we choose now to call him a male stewardess due to his rudeness - for going beyond "the curtain" to use the restroom. Rest assured that we had witnessed approximately 94 people from our side of the tracks do the same thing.
We should have learned our lesson from that one but on the last leg of the trip we were on a small plane from Paris to Florence. You now the kind - 2 seats on each side. Tiny right? We were seated in the 3rd row , again behind 1st class. Seriously 1st class on this little thing. Well, after take off, the stewardess came and closed the curtain so we didn't disturb them. Did I leave out the part that there was NO ONE seated in front of us! The curtain was closed none the less to protect anyone who might come along midflight. To fully appreciate this see the posted photo. 
Clearly worth the extra money - no?
