RUNNING IN ITALY (PART 2)

From Ligure we moved onto Tuscany. We stayed in the hometown of my grandmother's family Lucca. Lucca is an unbelievable town - walled and retaining its mid-evil heritage coupled with modern beauty. I went out running loops around the city on top of the Lucca wall.







It was difficult to keep a steady pace as the scenery, sculptures and history was so wonderful






All photos were taken during my run be me....this was the actual "loop" I ran in the mornings. Wow!







I have no idea how my ancestors could have left such a beautiful place.
