Day 151 - Volterra

Volterra is another charming and ancient Italian village, with a history going back to Neolithic times. Unique to the other towns we visited in Italy, was shop after shop of alabaster carvings - remarkable work. This mixed in with the restaurants, shops, local crafts, musicians and artists, along with the surrounding delicate Tuscan countryside, made it an excellent stop on our way to Sienna.

And no, all you Twilight fans, we did not see Aro, Caius, Marcus, Sulpicia,Chelsea, Jane or Alec.
