Day Trip to Bova Superiore

A very old church



OMG I want some!
      Last Saturday friends took us to a small town, one of the oldest in Italy and even more south the we are now , called Bova Superiore. It's in the Aspromonte mountains about 900 kilometers high. It has 465 inhabitants. Before starting the climb up the winding road up into the mountains, we had to stop for an espresso and pastry.  And I had ta take a picture of one of the beautiful cakes and the huge briosce rolls.
      It's about a 13 kilometer drive up into the mountains to get to Bova Superiore. We stopped to take some pictures of the awesome scenery.

There's only one main road into the town that stops at a small parking lot. The rest of the street are accessible on foot only.  Little cobblestone walk ways climbing up and down through the town. We walked around for about an hour. It was very peaceful. Not a whole lot of tourists up there.

Ciao a tutti!
