It’s Christmas! or Hanukkah, of whatever you like. It’s a time to celebrate family and love. I can’t say peace and prosperity since that seems rather far away in the world at this moment.
So our best greetings from the Orvieto gang in the person of Costanza.

Let’s hope for the future, which is about all we can do and remember to enjoy and appreciate each other.
Much love from,
Erika (mother, nonna, grandma, friend now and forever)
Orvieto itself doesn’t seem to change much and welcomes you all for the coming year.

Thank you Erika. So glad to receive your blog and so sorry to learn of your injury! What an unwelcome Christmas present! I send warm wishes for a speedy and complete recovery. Love to all!

Dear Erika; I wish you a warm Christmas and do hope your injury was minor and you recover quickly. I look forward to my 2025 return to Orvieto. In a few days we will be celebrating the “opening” of 2025, a bit like Pandora’s Box not knowing what’s inside, scary at first not knowing what it/he will bring, but always with a dash of hope for the best! Happy New Year, Mike Shaughnessy
