A Christmas Walk

(Many of these blog posts have been a bit long and too time-consuming for many to read during a busy day. So this will be a short post! )


Crumbs were left, some salt remained, appreciative note for foodstuffs sat near them.  Babbo Natale and his reindeer were not fooled by our relocation and the letters to the North Pole had obviously been received. After a long, enjoyable morning at home we finally got dressed and headed out into the sunshine for a walk. So high were his spirits Nikolai actually walked, too, and didn't complain once! Temperatures must have been close to 50F as we walked down a twisty path through a large field of grass still green. 




Into the walls we went and out the other side before climbing a staircase up onto the path encircling the town.



                         From there the mountains showed a fresh coat of snow in the distance 




and before we joined all of the townsfolk for a passegiata sulle mura we stopped to admire the view,                      
                                               
                                                                   the weather,





                                                   and just spending time together.
