ITALY PART 2

Upon returning from Amsterdam, I stayed again with my dear friend Ludovica. She had plenty planned for my last few days in Italy. First off was Assisi, home of St. Francis. We only visited two churches (there were more) because we wanted to save time for the Rocca Maggiore (castle). Alas, by the time we hiked the hill to the castle, it was closed.

The following day, we undertook the journey to the Amalfi Coast. It was quite the day with a flat tire, missing our boat, breaking my camera and having my dinner order come out wrong. BUT LET’S NOT BE NEGATIVE. We spent part of the day in Sorrento, and the other part on the island of Capri. Both were splendid representations of the beauty found in the Amalfi Coast.

At least it still takes pictures!

Our last mini trip was to the Marmore Falls in Terni. The waterfalls had 3 observation decks: at the top, middle and bottom. I only have pictures from the top because the mists were too thick for my now broken camera (it would have caused water damage beyond repair).

The last few pictures are just from around town (Rieti). I miss Italy but I’m excited for the adventures ahead of me!

This house has ONE HUNDRED FIFTY flower pots. Too many to fit into one picture! Also, the owners had me sign their guest book. 🙂
