‘JUST WALKING IN THE ….. SHADE’

Anyone remembers the song ‘Just Walking in the Rain’ of many years ago by Johnnie Ray?
Tuscany holiday – Day 5
Our second stop of the day was Panzano in Chianti, the most populous town in the chianti region. The oldest section of the town was on a steep climb dominated by the church of Santa Maria. It was sunny and hot and everyone, including this other family in front of us were walking in the shade and panting with the strain. But we made it to the top.
The church was completely rebuilt in the 19th century in the neoclassical style.
Thank you very much for looking and for your lovely comments on yesterday's picture.
Nice shot of the approach to the church. Sounds like it was quite a hike! I like the flowers on the steps.

When I was traveling in Greece and we climbed a lot of steep hills I reminded myself that the exercise was counter-balancing all the food we were eating at dinner! Nice shot of a pretty church. I hope the shaded walk helped!

Our Medical Director for Hospice was just visiting Tuscany. He told me it's a must visit before I die. I told him of some of the awesome photos you have shared. He told me he has been there before.
