May 16,2012 Assisi

Oh how we loved Assisi.Assisi is in the area called Umbria.Beautiful green hills and valleys.Assisi sits on the top of a hillside and it looks aRoman town.Very impressive.We drove up the mountainside to a campground and it was just a short walk into town.The streets were very narrow and quaint.You can't park anywhere in the town and but they do have a few parking areas you can park in outside the walls.It started to pour and we stopped in to have a hot chocalate and cappachino.Oh this was the best hot chocolate I ever tasted. It was thick and tasted like pure chocolate.Mmm good.We visited the Basilica of St. Francis named for St. Francis and some of the other churches.This is a must see town in Italy.
