#180 - Life in Italy - Small town summer festivals and the cost of an X-ray & MRI

From a 10 course fish feast at our farmhouse to pizza night with the oldies crew, guests and move to Italy workshops we have been busy! And when we have a bit of down time, we get a chance to visit a Rock n' BBQ festival, 50th wedding anniversary and a farmer's festival at the end of our road with mass and a procession with the Madonna. This is life in small town Italy in the summer - meals with friends and neighbors and tiny festivals that aren't what you think they will be! Jason has his first visit to the eye doctor and freaks himself out, and Ashley shares the costs of a recent X-ray and MRI.
