One extreme to another!
We left Bari on Monday morning. What a change. We arrived at Pescasseroli, in the mountains in the afternoon. This is a ski town. The town is at 3600 feet and the surrounding mountains are around 4800 feet. The temp was in the high 60's. We got up on Tuesday morning and it was in the low 50's. A long pants day for us. We took a hike up to an old castle ...

An introduction to Pescara (Part III)

She concured that this would be a definite recommendation for guests and visitors. We made our way to the front to pay our bill and leave.
