Visit to Montebello with Costantino and Marisa

After lots of discussion of the beautiful Montebello, Costantino and Marisa finally took me into the countryside where Costantino grew up (this was last week 2/29). The pointed out the farm where Costantino lived and then we stopped at their friends' house. I was able to see their huge pig, chickens, kittens, and rabbits! The countryside was definitely a beautiful sight. Their friend also showed me the Etruscan artifacts that they've found on their land: SO COOL! As we drove home, we pulled over on the side of the road, and Costantino and Marisa got out. I was a little confused. I asked what we were doing and they only replied with: FUNGHI (aka mushrooms). We climbed up the hill looking for mushrooms, but we were unsuccessful. Here is a picture of the Montebello countryside:
