The past 2 years we've spent Presidents' Day weekend at Carnevale in Viareggio. This year we decided to head to the heel of Italy and explore the province of Puglia.
Here is our trulli house in Alberobello. We had 3 apartments in this cute little country villa. Poor Melissa had to spend all weekend in her trulli apartment because she was sick. :(
Saturday morning we explored the Caves of Castellana
Down, down, down we go...
Photos were only allowed where there was natural light coming into the caves. We hiked through some magnificent areas over the next hour!
After the caves, we headed into Alberobello
Camden being Camden :)
Unique art on the trulli buildings
Such a cute town to explore!
Sunday morning we went to nearby Locorotondo
Beautiful little streets...
...that were full of runners competing in a road race!
Here Ron and I are trying to get down the street and stay out of their way
The Adriatic Sea
We looked for a place to eat lunch on the water and found this cool restaurant
Seaside lunch in February!
We continued driving up the coast to one of the larger towns in the area, Monopoli. I'm sure it is a hopping place in the summer, but on a Sunday afternoon in the winter, it was a ghost town.
Camden and Emma making the most of our tour around town
We ended our evenings playing Scopa and Canasta with the Zs. Ron and Chris would enjoy some wine and a cigar while checking out the stars.
