Yes, it is warm and sunny in southern Italy. The plants on the balcony are starting to flower. This is my lemon/lime tree (we are still trying to decide which it is).
Look at the beautiful blossoms! We will have a crop of fruit, I hope!
All the sun...brings flowers but also heat. The Adriatic sun is intense. By 10:30 this morning I had to close the green outter shutters to block the heat. Closing the windows will be the next defense against the unrelenting sun ...
And then the inner shutters will be closed! Yes, we spend most of the summer in a dark room trying to keep cool...Go to the beach and fry or stay at home in the cave? Hummmm?
Staring at the white shutters can be depressing. Maybe we need to add some flair like this wonderful ceiling painting from Casserta? Tre Ewing!
