Assisi

Today was an early start - breakfast at 6:45 and on our way to the funicula to head down to catch the boat to Naples. It was about an hour ride to Naples where we boarded our tour bus again. We are on our way to Asissi, 246 miles. The countryside is beautiful, small vineyards and cottages abound.


In Assisi, we saw the churches of St Francis and St Clare. Love walking the streets of these small towns among all the shops, gelaterias, and local residents. So much history, so little time.

We'll be posting more photos on Flickr and details on Venice in the next day or two, so stay tuned!
