Arezzo

All the area we are staying in is reclaimed from marshland and once the ocean covered it. It is a huge plain with a few steep hills. All these hills have old walled towns built on their tops and are surrounded by modern buildings at their base. 

There are many statues and paintings of Saint Francis of Assisi. It is here that he lived all his days in the forests with the animals. 

We have seen so many jays lizards egrets swifts and swallows and martins nesting. 

So today we spent the day in Arezzo. 

I wanted to take impressions of Italy in my photography. So here are some I took with my mobile phone in Arezzo. I have many more on my cameras!

Very hot today 31*c
