A tapestry of stone, terracotta brick and earth-coloured stucco.
An archeological jigsaw of extensions in the course of time. Leaving us with ghost windows and door openings. Here even the door holders were preserved, when the door was closed.
Raise your eyes, as you stroll the lanes of an Umbrian medieval borgo. The façades reveal innumerable footprints. A muted palette with objects. Once for everyday use. Today works of art. Still low-keyed. Former generations of craftsmen left us with wrought-iron nose rings,
Candle and fire holders - still frequently used in the after-dark summer feste. Decorative objects in daytime. Just to mention a few.Off for Mykonos tomorrow. Looking forward to architectural contrasts - of vibrant white and blues. Enjoy summer, wherever you are! Bacione, Ingrid

Vilken blick du har för detaljer! Rost och sten och gammalt virke...inte mycket slår naturmaterial. Har varit till Wij trädgårdar idag. Vackert väder och mycket folk. Mycket vackert att titta på.
Vad det gäller Portugal så hade jag gärna stannat kvar...men nu ville dottern med pojkvän låna huset några veckor...Vi hade räknat med att vi skulle vara mätta vid det här laget ;)
Ha det så härligt på Mykonos!
