Exploring Sirmione 02/10/2015

Today we walked from the castle /keep at the harbor to the North end of the island where there is a 1C BC Roman villa the size of an IKEA warehouse.  It's quite ruined but some of the very high walls are still there and it's being restored. 

Then a visit to the church for tomorrow's wedding. Nearby was a hummingbird hawkmoth flitting from flower to flower. 

We wandered downhill on cobbled streets past the expensive clothes shops, gelateria and gift shops. Chose a restaurant for lunch and enjoyed pizza. 

Walked back to the apartment -in total 8km. 

Getting ready for family meetup and dinner tonight. 

The heavy rain has only just started so there will be showers tomorrow.
