I...Wow! Have you ever considered teaching history? <br />I love the 21st century comparisons to the 12th century...the billboards and comic books. The similarities, not the differences, are what make history come alive! <br /><br />And we're STILL embarking on crusades, 800 years later. Sighhh. Some things never change.cactus petuniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16114194541917210679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7486020167848564517.post-49135846604232393012009-07-30T03:27:02.337-06:002009-07-30T03:27:02.337-06:00What a fascinating old medieval town.

There is such a sense of history in these places, especially when they are still lived in, and not just museums.<br /><br />I loved the nave of the basilica, all those Norman arches, such a feel of space and holiness. And I loved the stone, the steps, the walls - well all of it really!<br /><br />The type of stone that towns are built in makes a difference to the "feel" of a place. Warm stone, like this little town gives a happy, living feeling, but cold grey granite can be rather chilly!<br /><br />And what fascinating courses you did!Gillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00322140697547406511noreply@blogger.com
