A visit back in time.
My father-in-law was at Monte Cassino in 1943 when the Allies invaded Italy so this was a trip to see what he had talked about so often. We came to understand that ordeal better. But we also visited an area that is not often visited by international tourists let alone Italians. It was a unique experience pulling back the curtain on the vanished monastic life. The vistas from this highpoint are fantastic.
