Ravenna Day 3







Today we were in the city of Ravenna a small costal town on the Adriac Sea. It has some of the best ancient early Christian churchs in the world, the oldest being built in the middle 4th century. We visited 5 churches all the World Historic Socities Hertiage 's Registery. The Mosaic were enough to take your breath away. Anna our local guide was most impressive with the knowedge of the history of the area and the sites themselves. Well, I had better sign off as it is now 1:30 in the morning here and we have a 6:30 wake up call. This trip has just begun and already it has surpassed anything I could have imaged it would be. We visit the statue of David in Florence tommorrow. Ciao.
