Our last day in Italy, cant believe it...today, we day tripped from the hill town of Orvieto, where we are staying for 2 nights, to Civita. Civita is indescribeable, but I will do my best. It is a medieval/etruscian/really ancient town built on a hilltop. There is one way in and out of town, just a footbridge (used to be a donkey path, but that eroded away over time). Civita is essentially an island on a hill. With clouds surrounding it, it looks like it is floating in the sky. Here is a link http://www.civitadibagnoregio.it/english/index.htm (cut and paste it into your browser) We actually had lunch at the restaurant owned by the guy who maintains the website.
Now we are back in Orvieto. We just got gelato (again) and are reminiscing about our amazing adventure. We have seen so many amazing places and, most importantly, learned so much about each other and grown stronger together.
Tomorrow we begin our long (approx 24 hour) journey home. Bus to train to train to plane to plane to car...
Ciao for now,
J and J
