St.Antimo Abbey






St. Antimo Abbey


Day 1 (unfinished)

It has been a year since I attended the cooking class in Tuscany, yet each day I cling to the memories like grapes to the vine.


Of all the wonderful places I have seen, Tuscany holds my heart and I am not alone.


This is St. Antimo Abbey near Montalcino in the Italian province of Siena.


We were fortunate enough to arrive in time to hear the friars sing Gregorian chants. I was able to capture this picture, which I think is so pretty. I am sure you will agree. The stone walls provided excellent acoustics.
I bet that's what heaven sounds like.
