Carol chowing in Siena

It was dinner time in Sienna and we had scouted a yummy looking gelato shop. When we were ordering Carol order a large 9" cone with 5 (yes 5!!!) nearly tennis ball size scoops of gelato. Of course I did also. And, of course, I finished way before Carol did.

There was no where to eat, so, like everyone else in Sienna we sat down in the large town square. While Carol was finishing her 5!!! scoops of gelato I wandered off to take pictures. Here are some pictures of Carol finishing her 5!!! scoops of gelato (and the 9" cone).
