I think you're right - the houses were probably maintained by people who lived in cities and came to their hometown on weekends.Belenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07750266130694719752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4829987763474960485.post-80452675436021085292009-05-07T15:21:00.000-07:002009-05-07T15:21:00.000-07:00Beautiful landscapes and aesthetically pleasing to...Beautiful landscapes and aesthetically pleasing towns. Tuscany looks like a wonderful place to visit. Is it as sparsely populated as it seems in your pictures? A lot of your pictures reminded me of villages and small towns in some areas of Spain, where many of the nicest looking old houses are the vacation homes of people who were born there but now live and work in cities.Rainerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00736067178516909977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4829987763474960485.post-55651610880115300842009-05-07T13:25:00.000-07:002009-05-07T13:25:00.000-07:00Great pictures!

It must have taken a master chef in Tuscany to make you forget what meat looked like in the stores.<br />BTW, you need to ask Aaron and Jess about their hotel in Ronda (Andalucia) which resembled your pictures in that it too was built into a cliff. Another place for you to visit.<br />DianneDiannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07631605451164392356noreply@blogger.com
