Thou Paradise of exiles, Italy! – Percy Bysshe Shelley
Hiking from Almalfi to Pontone for lunch, climbing steadily upward through the ruins of 13th century paper-mills are indeed the best kind of days.

Oh I just love the way the air smells of lemons throughout so many areas of Italy.
And such a delight to the eye. Thank you for your kind words.

You are most welcome. Seems everywhere I point the camera, there is something beautiful. One of the extra delights of this particular hike is that it was done on a Sunday Morning and beautiful songs of a full church choir came through the valley, back and up to the edge of the mountain, then echoed back again, joined with church bells. Big time excellent experience. Thank you for your visit and kind words.
