As Promised - Introducing Canale!

On my trip [T minus 2 days!], I will be spending the most time with my friends in Canale Monterano, Italy [just North of Rome... check google maps]. My friend, Claudio, his son, Adrian, his mom, Rosella, his brother, Tulio, Tulio's wife, Mara, cousin Tulio, other cousin Tulio, Mario, Mauritzio, all the other cousins and friends, and all the other great people of Canale await.

While there we'll visit the neighbouring towns, the beaches [both salty and fresh], Rome, some Etruscan tombs, Florence [perhaps], and a few other choice sites. All while trying, most days, to make it home for lunch, or there will be hell to pay with Rosella.

Canale has the castle, a market, some swell old buildings, picturesque streets, a beautiful landscape, five bars... all one could want!

Here are some photos to introduce the place to those who might be interested [currently, me and Melinda, if the
sitemeter is to be believed]:
