I so agree with the other commenters who say they will miss Olivia-in-Italy!

How wonderful you fit a little side trip to Slovenia. I've never been but have wanted to. By the way, I thought of you this weekend. We took a quick trip to a city called Querétaro here in Mexico and one of the most beautiful churches there is called Santa Rosa de Viterbo (it was pink stone outside with a gold Baroque interior). Might your town and this church be named after the same saint?

Karla! That is the craziest coincidence because this week is the saint days for Santa Rosa! Santa Rosa is the unofficial saint for Viterbo and the inspiration for this amazing festival: https://visit.viterbo.it/la-macchina-di-santa-rosa/
