More Orvieto…the town itself

Quaint and picturesque don’t even begin to describe Orvieto! Every corner you turn, there’s another picture postcard just waiting to be snapped :-)

As narrow as these streets are (and as steep!), the cars do go both directions…and at break-neck speeds. Interestingly, you rarely hear horns being used.

The chocolate shop!

The corner near Dani’s favorite cafe, where she bought her cappuccinos every morning. And where she watched Italy kick butt in the Euro-Cup matches :-)

The best pottery shop in Orvieto (I’ll show you the goods on Monday!)

The artisan’s street near the Duomo. This is the only “touristy” area in Orvieto.

    Thank you guys! It was hard to narrow down the pictures to just a few so that I wouldn’t bore you all to tears…I must have shot every doorway, window, and alley in the entire town!
