Driving to Tarzo Sunday May 24th

We said goodbye to Assisi and head off to our next stop, Tarzo. Tarzo is a small town northwest of Venice and in the heart of Prosecco wine country. After a 2 1/2 hour drive we reach Ravenna the half way point of today's trip. Among over things, Ravenna is famous for its early Christian church mosaics. Seat of the Roman empire in the 5th century and then the Byzantine Empire till the 8th, Ravenna is home to the best church mosaics in the world. Truly breath taking.





A quick lunch and back on the road. 3 hours later we arrive in the town where we will be staying for the next four days. Unfortunately,there is no cell service so we cannot contact our host to tell him we are here or find out the exact location of his b&b. A nice British person knows where it is and walks us there. Small and on three levels, it is just right for us. The town is in the foothills of the Dolimites and has about 100 people in it. Our host made us dinner reservations at an agrotourist restaurant nearby. Great dishes and a wonderful view. And a wonderful rainbow just before we ate.  Three contented people.
