Bari
The Gionta family, Valentino, Bob, Giuseppe (Joe), Me, Lucilla, Graziella, and Giancarlo. That's our home in the background.
My brother, Gene. His favorite spot.
We arrived back on our beachfront for the summer. With our friends upstairs, the Gionta family, and the friends that own the beach concessions, needless to say we had a good time. With a few visitors and a special dinner on the beach, right up thru August and into Sept..... ..a very nice summer. The end of Sept and into Oct, Don & Shirley came over for their annual trip and this time we went south and east Italy. We headed to Bari, and stayed there while we did day trips for about 5 days. They (D & S) like our town of Formia so we relaxed at home for a few days before they headed back. As you see above, Bari Vecchia (Old), Alborobello (Truli houses), Otranto, Lecce, and on the way back, thru the 'middle of the arch of the boot', Matera. Matera is where the people lived in the caves up until 1951. That's where the movie 'The Passion of Christ' was made.
