Assisi: Mercoledi, Febbraio 24:
Day's Mileage: 3.5














A look up at the city with the smoke from burning olive branches in the front














Bus parking with a good example of permeable paving














Such a nice crosswalk detail, don't you think?




















Gateway into the city














Tony and Paolo chatting in the Piazza of San Francesco D'Assisi















The cloister courtyard at San Francesco














The garden outside the upper church of San Francesco. The word 'PAX" (or peace) spelled out in shrubbery. 'Bring me a shrubbery!'














Piazza of San Francesco D'Assisi with the valley in the background





















A pedestrian street. Doesn't that look like fun!?




















The bell tower














The Church of Santa Chiara




















Old man walking up hill




















Old woman walking up hill














Our secondi piatti at Ristorante La Rocca; potatoes and a chicken.














Emily, Amy, Me, and Heidi on the patio after lunch




















A pastry shop. Just take a look at all those pastries....is your mouth watering yet?














Amy and Emily with some pastries. Emily got a meringue type pastry. After biting into it she said:
"I just ate a bath salt" as it crumbled all over the ground and the pigeons flocked to share
"What does it taste like?" Amy asked
"Like cotton candy.....no....stale cotton candy" Emily replied



















Tony sketching at the Basilica Santa Chiara













A look back at Assisi through the trees on the bus ride back
