Reaching Ever Higher

The WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge provides the theme of Ascend.

There were a number of approaches to this theme that came to mind rather quickly, so you can expect more than one post for this theme…

As a started, I couldn’t help but think of the amount of ascending that my wife and I did while exploring the hill towns of Tuscany this year.  These picturesque towns had us climbing everywhere, as very few streets stayed at the same level very long, and none had us do more climbing than Massa Marittima, as we even ascended the tower at the top of the town for an amazing view.

Here’s part of the climbing that we did in Massa Marittima…

Where do they lead?

Luckily, the great food kept us well-sustained for all this climbing!

Have a wonderful day!

    Love these old villages built on the sides of hills and cliffs but I wouldn’t want to have to do the stairs that often.
