This is the back side of the walled fortress thinggy that butted up to the sea. It was lovely looking out onto the open sea. I took a photo over the wall of the fortress out toward the Adriatic, that's another island you see out there peaking in from the left. Pretty huh?
This was the other side of the walled fortress you seen in the previous picture. It was so cool to be in this 1500 year old island town. Most of the structures on the island were made from the white rock that lines the Adriatic coastline.
The little halls are lined with little coffee houses. They serve the strongest black coffee you could ever want, I order mine with milk. :0)
I loved this little hallway because of the bell you can see at the center of the picture. I think that was a little church like thing.
I was amazed how many little towns there were nestled into the mountains along the coastline.
This last one is Johnny and I with our oldest son Cody (14). See how I'm slowly becoming the shortest on in the family? Even my 11 year old is hitting a growth spurt and my 9 year old daughter is already wearing my socks!
Tori, you have an amazing eye for photography. Do you scrapbook these pictures? I hope so. They would be so wonderful to look at on your display table when you come home!! :)

What beautiful pictures! Thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to let you know, I tried moving my blog to a new address. It is now www.theviewfrommyfishbowl.blogspot.com
I tried to set it up so that it would automatically reroute people to the new site, but instead, it reverted the rachammett.blogspot.com back to the archives from before I switched to Beta. Kinda strange, and a little frustrating! :) I'm just trying to let everyone know who I know has commented or linked in the past.
Have a great day!
