View Towards San Gimignano...

Off again, we encountered acres of silver birch trees all planted in rows with leaves shimmering in the sunlight. For once all signs led to our town, having been a place of pilgrimage for many hundreds of years…San Gimignano – originally with 700 towers, it now boasts 40 remaining. We stopped for a picnic with the towers in view on the horizon and again we were in anticipation of the delights to come.
