I had an email this morning from Andreas Nemitz (of the fabulous-looking Coaching in Bavaria horse-drawn tours).

He said that, over the last couple of days, as he was reading Mr. Johnson’s story of trying to cross a swollen river,  it reminded him of one of his crossings of the River Ombrone in Tuscany. (There were two horse-drawn vehicles on the trip, so people on each vehicle took photos of the other.) …

Mr. Nemitz assures us that the crossing looked far more dramatic than it actually was.
