2023'S Winter solstice is around the corner, as on December 22 the Northern hemisphere will be furthest away from the sun. It will be the shortest day of the year.
The picture above shows the Bay of Naples (South Italy) on a cloudy morning in late Autumn. It was taken by my sister, who lives there.
That old medieval tower was built five centuries ago to protect against the threat of invasion by Arabs and turks. I saw it while I was on the rooftop of building located in the historic centre of the town.
The tower was surrounded completely by residential buildings two centuries after it had been built.
Hi Giorgio :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice pictures. The first photo in particular is delightful! I can't wait for the first day of winter, as the days are just starting to get longer L(
Giogrgio, I salute you and I wish you a nice day!
P.S.
Giorgio, is there a lot of talk about Poland in the Italian media today?
That's true, Anna! There is a great talk about Poland in my country, because Tusk's government wants to reduce public subsidies for the Church.
