ASSISI, ITALY

Lauren says her Italian ancestors families are all from this area.












We stopped in Assisi for lunch & some hiked up the hill to a Famous Cathedral. Kelly & I


& another couple from Alabama opted for a liesurely lunch, best pulled pork, lettuce & tomato sandwich I've had in a long while, Yummm! I'd read a book about the travels


of a Medieval Queen & her entourage who traveled from France down through Italy over


mountains & hills on horseback & kind of a hand-carriage like the Chinese used. She was


well along with child & stopped in this city to have her baby & convalesce, before resumming


her journey south, so it was pretty interesting to actually be here.
