A goal for our next visit. Sounds great. So many amazing places in Italy.
I know Paula, a lifetime isn’t enough!
A marvellous trip! ! Italy and its people are beautiful, the sea is amazing, the climate fantastic, the art inspiring, the food delicious and doing it with Chandi makes it extra special!
Great article. …xx
Wow, so many compliments ???? So glad to share it with you. ????
We stayed in Scilla the night before we saw the Bronzes. They are very impressive! We were doing a “Magna Grecia” trip and toured south of Naples and Scilly, of all the Museum we visited, the one in Taranto was probably the best. Our hostess at the trullo near Locorotondo was surprised we had included Taranto on our itinerary and was rather dismissive of Taranto.
Hi Bill, I am not surprised she was dismissive of Taranto. I get that attitude so much living here in Italy that I have learned to not pay much attention to it. It is beyond just the north-south thing. I think some of it goes back to the concept of campanilismo. Here in Lucca as I am looking at houses for sale, sometimes I’ll search in the hills on the other side of the city from the hills where I am now and my neighbor will say, “Oh my, why would you look over there? These hills are the best, this is where you need to look!” ????
What totally amazing sculptures, every detail is breathtaking. I’m thrilled that you had this great experience and wish I had been there too, thank you for the excellent photos.
It would have been great if you could have been with us!
I love your enthusiasm for the little things Chandi! I also love myths and tales they give such a cool narrative before arriving in a place and add a fairytale type quality (even though they obviously aren’t true!). Life should be an adventure and we need all the fairy-tale experiences we can get these days
What a great way to put it, “fairy-tale experiences”! ????
