Anzio and the beach front apartment

We spent out last day in Sora matching war photos for a friend of Perry. We visited some nice hill top towns and medieval castles.

the next day we headed away from Sora to Anzio. We went via a Isola Del Liri to see the waterfall,

the town used to rich from paper mills and there were some amazing villas, now not so rich.

We visited Acquino and the roman ruins and dig where they are uncovering a villa and road.

part way through the journey we hit a thunderstorm and downpour and had to shelter under the road overbridge.  after a while it eased and we headed off, Under the next underpass a truck had smashed into a van and there was mess everywhere.

Finally we arrived in Anzio and went to the address on air bnb slip and we couldn't find the number of the house, the area was disappointing so Perry rung the owner. we met them in town and they took us to the real apartment which is one street from the beach with a really large sea view balcony. much more like the pictures.  It is a superb location with the main town about 2 streets away and the beach one street away. ( the owner needs to fix the location on the air bnb notification!

Today we had a private tour of the beach landing fields and the cave system used by the USA troops. the Guide was a local but his English was good enough for us to understand.  He had preferential access to some of the sites we visited. The cave system was quite large and lovely and cool, it is 35 deg here again and we are off for a swim.
