This happened to me the first time I saw the Riace Bronzes down here in Reggio Calabria. I had seen photos, and yes, they're impressive, blah blah...but in person. Just. Wow. Thanks for sharing!

If you come down again you can stay at my place and meet Nello and Mara. I think it's interesting to see what another expat thinks of where I live. Oh, and the weather will be better next time!!

Typical annual everything? I would love to meet more people in Puglia and I am finding not much real info available, just mostly repetitions of the same stuff from page to page. I would especially love to cook alongside a local person. Sognatrice, there is a similar smash in the head experience with the bronzes at Pergola, le Marche. I just fell onto a bench and thought about what I was seeing. Rome and Romans came to life before me. All, I have a month's worth of things to say about Puglia, from a 5 day trip that included 2 days driving to and fro. What a place. Jeff, do you know of a weather history site on Puglia?

And you can rent a trullo, but I didn't want to because they don't have windows. Some have a square addition, which name I don't recall and then you can have a window. They are in a particular area which includes, but is not exclusive to Alberobello. That is like the Trulliest of the trulli. Quite touristed. I liked where we were, except for the rain and the narrowest streets. I think the rain fell everywhere, though, even the trulli. It was one of the nicest trips I have ever done. (I bought 5 liters of the most wonderful DOP/DOC oil.) Yes, we drove. And you can rent a trullo, but I didn’t want to because they don’t have windows.
