La Macchina

Today was our first day to venture out in the little car that is at our house for us to use (and I do mean little!)  It is a sky blue fiat and we are so glad it is small as the streets here are very narrow. 
Our Little Blue Macchina
Narrow is one thing, but many streets are also "cobbled", people drive very fast and there don't seem to be any dividing lines on the roads.  All these factors considered, Doug did an excellent job of getting us 10 minutes UP the mountain to the old walled city of Veroli. Veroli is absolutely beautiful!  We took off at about 11 this morning, found a cafe, had our first cappucino and hung out until things were starting to shut down around 1.  I'm sure we will be back a lot during our stay.
