Thursday Doors 2017

While I didn’t quite squeak out a full year of doors, I was still lucky enough to be introduced to Norm’s Thursday Doors challenge by my magnificent friend (and Italy compadre) Manja. Many of the doors, not surprisingly, were ones I strolled by, entered, or just plain adored whilst in my Italy travels this past summer. It’s a challenge to keep my post brief, so I’ll have to dig not so deep to try to pick my ultimate favs.

Rome. Bananas!

The street art was incredible – though only a bit of it was on doors – this a fav.

Looking out to the small piazza from the Chiesa di San Donato, Civita di Bagnoregio

Civita di Bagnoregio. Here, you can see thru its sole ancient entryway.

I can’t imagine a better group of women to chill out with (literally, it was a hot 90+ degrees in Civita!) Oh, and our pal Fonzie too. Amazing day in our two lovely towns

Orvieto, the Duomo reflection.

Delightful Volterra. A fav for sure.

Cinque Terre: Vernazza

Trastevere, Rome

Gelato! Friends! What a day in Trastevere and all over Rome.

Perpsective! Basilica of Saint Paul Outside the Walls, Rome. My bestie Manja snapped this photo!

At the Bargello in Florence, greeted by some lovely lions in crowns!

Closer to home – well, kind of! Seems these doors actually span coast to coast 🙂
