Beautiful walkways...

Me and Elise had bought a small bottle of wine each to carry us along the city walls... at the end we wrote messages and threw them out to the sea from the 40 meter high wall. One of my favorite moments of the trip!

Loved all your photos. Great idea with the message in a bottle - hope you hear from someone. I really like the way you write - I feel like I am there. You describe everything so well - the emotions, the history, the landscape. Take care - have fun with your Mom.
