Angel Safari with Fred

Threatened rain all day but it never happened. Probably because we were prepared. I was excited to see the intact amphitheater and then learned it was reconstructed by a certain Itiallian dictator in WWII... no, I can't spell his name. It was cool anyway, and there we still some actual Roman masonry. Pretty much all the building materials were repurposed (stolen) for churches and such. The structure is denied by Unesco as a heritage site because it has lights for concerts installed.
I should mention dad has a bad cold as do some other of the passengers. He comes on the walks anyway. I bought him some medicinal honey at a farmers market but he won't try it. It tastes fantastic. I think it may be infused with elderberry. I got this particular one doing pantomime for a cold and this one was recommended. I will probably eat it all in the next few days. It is amazing.
