Rieti
Rieti is such a beautiful town!! We have been very busy running around and doing a lot of vocation!!! We visited Baxter, who manufactures plasma from blood for fighting desease. Very interesting tour!! We also got to visit with the Mayor of Reiti. What an honor! And of course we got to see a lot of wonderful sites in town. There is a lot of history in Rieti, dating back to before the Romans. The people here have been so generous. They also served us Truffles on toast, which is made from a type of mushroom like plant found under oak trees. Very rare and can cost up to $2,000 per pound!!!! What a special treat for the GSE team. More to come. I must download more pictures to share. What a great trip!!
