Follow along with our current trip or explore past adventures. Our blog title is a bastardized portmanteau of our family name, Farnsworth, and Dolce Far Niente, Italian for “The sweet art of doing nothing”. So this is us getting very accomplished at wasting our time having fun.

- Hotel res: Right day, wrong month!
One new thing in France that I will not miss is the large number of young men riding (silent) electric scooters at full speed down the sidewalk. Other than that, I’m sorry to be leaving this wonderful country but looking forward to a couple of weeks in Italy! We had a beautiful three plus hour bus ride through the Alps to Turin then immediately hiked to Hertz to pick up our car. Drove to the town of Asti in the Piedmont region, home to the famous Asti Spumante and Moscato d’Asti wines. Beautiful hotel by a big park. Dinner at a nearby street fair of foods from around the world.
