Via San Zanobi

We arrived at our new home in good time, despite some minor wrinkles. The high speed train was cool. For the first time since we got to Rome, Owen got his diaper changed on an actual change table. There was an empty seat beside us, which was nice for Owen. He had a nap lying down, again, for the first time in days.

Our apartment here is very nice. Smaller than the last place. But there is a nice personal touch here. There's a guest book where people have left recommendations for places to eat and must see. It's made us feel like we have a head start, since we aren't here for very long.

After some relaxing, we went cruising the market. Kris bought a beautiful leather man purse for €110. We found ourselves near a small wine store (okay, all the stores are small) where they offered a tasting of three wines with some crostini and tomato. For the first time, both Kris and I were impressed by Italian wine. I know, we came to Italy, and neither of us are thrilled with the wines here. But these were good. We had a Chianti classico, a Monticello Rosso and a Monticello brunello. The girl who served us was very nice and knowledeable. And she was very friendly to Owen as well. We ate a really nice dinner at a place she reccomended.

Owen slept in his bed in the closet so he could have his own space. He's little, so I don't think he minded.
