OK, Jack, you're in Rome and I haven't been there since 1985 and my memory may be hazy, but ...

I remember stopping in Orvieto as the midway point between Rome and Florence, and it was a lot more than 1.5 miles from Rome.

I was on a tour bus and I remember Orvieto as being this lovely village at the top of a mountain. Great restaurant within sight of the local cathedral, which was very impressive, especially lit up after dinner.

I hope the years haven't melded memories of several cities into one.
