Alberobello

We awoke to thunder and lightning and it rained off and on all morning.

Having loaded the car with our luggage and some of that of the cyclists, we set off to Gravina too see the "James Bond Bridge". Tick.

Then it was on to Alberobello. Actually getting to our accommodation was one of those trial and error, driving around in circles things because of temporary road closures. We got there!

 Our host was a very kind and energetic man who explained everything, even how to use the parking machine. Kathleen and I stayed in an actual historic trullo, which has been his family home.

Up inside the roof:

The road closures were due to a fair on over the next few days and there were already stalls set up.

Funghi!!!

I even managed to buy a souvenir cycling jersey.

The evening is all organised with a wine tasting at Paco Wines and then dinner.
