in the footsteps of St Francis

Today we took the bus to Assisi.

The sun was shining and it was pleasantly warm......

A few pics to tempt you..... you'll see these and a lot more. Alas you can't take pics in the two main churches, and thus you won't get to see Giotto's magnificent frescoes.








good spot by Trish



And one by me... a flutter i've never seen. I bet Ragged Robin will be jealous! Initially I thought it was a Swallowtail but it seems it is a Scarce Swallowtail....

  1. It all looks wonderful Pete, a lovely place to visit. Sunshine and blue sky! It's pouring again here :-( I'm mega envious about the Swallowtail, beautiful pics of it! Pretty envious about the Serin on the previous post too. As for the wine and champagne...delicious! Enjoy the rest of your stay :-)

  3. Beautiful Pete - from your first photo the scenery looks stunning :) As you have guessed I am exceedingly envious of your Scarce Swallowtail :) Great spot though :)

    Look forward to more photos. Enjoy the rest of your stay :)
