Via Cava di San Rocco

Next up was Via Cava di San Rocco in Sorano. This was another super fun Etruscan road walk! It started off with a nice view of Sorano, then into the rock walls and all the caves! This one was pretty steep, so not as many photos as it was also a bit slippery so can’t stop that often, but so much fun! Today was full of great walks that we both loved! Oh the photo after the cave/cave in the wall (it is just of the rocks) - there was a sign that said there were crosses carved into the rocks and we found some! There is a cross just to the right of the green patch at the bottom of the tree roots on the top left hand side of the photo.

After our hike we headed home and the clouds started to get darker as we got closer…and as soon as we shut the door after coming in from the car it started pouring! So much rain!

Then we got another crazy understand around the same time as yesterday and we were sitting here watching and we saw a bright flash to the side of the house, heard a pop and then the power went out! We were like…umm…hopefully it is just that a fuse went and not something more serious! So we searched for the circuit breaker and luckily that was it (though the lightbulb in the kitchen burnt out!). So that was fun. And the thunder and lightning lasted forever! Some of the thunder was so loud it was shaking the house a bit. It was so fun sitting here watching it (once we got the power back on!).

All in all today was a great day! We loved at the hikes we did and had perfect weather while we were out and a fun thunderstorm when we got home! Tomorrow on to the next stop!Read more
