Places I've been

So, we've been doing a little traveling as of late. The girls: Eline, Aoi (sounds like owwweee!), Tomomi, and I, that is. About a month ago we took a trip to the city of Lucca (looo-kah). It's a beautiful city surrounded by a great wall from the Medieval era. The wall served as protection for the citizens from possible attacks. The wall, today, serves as a historic monument, walking path, and park for the city. You can walk the circumference of the city outside of the wall, but you can also walk on top of the wall and take in the view of the city within and without. Really interesting.

So, below, in no particular order whatsoever, the pictures are of the wall, my friends, city map of Lucca, the duomo and bell tower, and then the walking path on top of the wall.







Enjoy!
