Ravenna in brief

Yesterday I visited 6 of the 8 Unesco world heritage listed sites with amazing mosaics plus a few other buildings. It is very hot and old churches are usually refreshingly cool.

Today I went by bus to see one of the remaining 2 sites ( the last is closed for renovation). It is the one that I remember visiting with John 31 years ago. I also went by a different bus to the seaside (not without it's challenges) and had a closeup look at a beach resort.

Tomorrow I go by train to Mantova. On Wednesday I plan a day off - catch up on more detailed posts, ( I think the hotel has a wireless network), maybe write some postcards and/ or send the few I've written ( don't hold your breathe though), read a book, do some embroidery etc.
