Here is a little video from Rocca Aldobrandesca. It is astounding to see Tentennano come into view at the end of this video! We climbed both towers last weekend. If you want to see the opposing view, the video is posted just before this one.

Last weekend we climbed the Rocca Tentennano, & afterward its partner castle, Rocca Aldobrandesca.
The views from up there are absolutely stunning. Montalcino, Pienza, San Quirico, Radicofani, all easily visible. Here is the 1st video from Tentennano. Next post will be the video from Aldobrandesca.

When we left lunch today, the town band was marching through town. We caught a short clip of them playing Verdi, "Va pensiero". We have played this more times than we can remember, it took me a while to remember which opera this was, but upon hearing it I immediately remembered all the fingerings ;)

Last night was the most spectacular moonrise I have ever seen. You can literally see the moon rising with the naked eye, over the castle in the hilltown of Castiglione del Lago. We were so lucky to witness it.
