On Saturday we went into Vasanello and bought a chicken leg, a pork roast, vegetables (including wild asparagus), bread, and fresh pasta for our Easter feast. We took it back to the villa and then headed out into a light rain for a trip to Lago di Bolsena. This is a volcanic lake about 40 km from here. We again had a lovely drive, and walked around in the town of Marta. We found a great local place for lunch. We had seafood antipasto, some pasta primi piatti and then three of us had the local lake fish, a white carp they call coregno. Jean ordered lake perch that said it came with egg noodles in the English translation, but what they meant was breaded! She said it was delicious however it came!
We walked more in the town and found some gelato. We headed home again, stopping along the way for parmigiano reggiano, cream, and we just happened to buy another Tre Marie Columba! (We had already stolen a march on Easter and eaten the first one we bought.)
The rest of Saturday was slow and easy, and the sun came out enough for a little more Bocce.
