atop the trulli...


I clambered up the side of a trullo to see what I could see.

While I was scrambling around up there I got caught by a shopkeeper. My Italian isn't perfect, but I understood from the spaghetti flying around my head that some displeasure was involved.

To make amends for the trespass, and to postpone a firsthand encounter with the carbinieri, we were compelled to purchase over 700 euros of trinkets and souvenirs from the shopkeeper and her two lovely daughters.
