Dark skies are approaching again (2.45p.m) after a morning of mixed weather. It was still a nice temperature so we went for a walk around the lake, 2 miles. The sunshine finally returned and we were treated to a beautiful sunset that night, the sky was on fire!
BTW...that's hubby walking down the steps, I photo bombed him :))
È collocata sulla sommità del paese, laddove sorgeva l'antica Acropoli, la chiesa di San Pietro, la più antica di Segni, venne costruita sui resti di un antico tempio romano dedicato alla dea Giunone Moneta. Parte delle celle laterali dell'antico edificio vennero riutilizzate per innalzare il campanile
