Stone Carving

This face is carved on the rear wall of the Duomo, Molfetta's first cathedral, built in the 1100s.

Heart of Stone

Is it just me, or does that rock on the right look heart-shaped?

A Slice of Adriatic Sea

I realise I've been posting a lot of shots of the sea lately. It is awfully pretty, though, you must admit. And this is the time of year when I start getting tired of winter and wishing summer (read beach season!) were here.

Not that I should complain...we hardly have what many of you would consider a "real" winter with real cold, snow drifts, ice storms or anything like that. But for us here in Molfetta, these temperatures feel cold and I, for one, am getting tired of the winter coat and wool sweaters.

Weeds

This photo was taken from the same spot as yesterday's, but looking to the left of the road that winds down to the sea. You can see the remains of an old dry-stone wall to the right and in the background an abandoned stone house.
