Duino Castle

Today we were in Sistiana, Italy. In the afternoon, we hiked along the dolomite cliffs to Duino Castle. The hike provided some great views of the bay as well a little exercise. Along the hike, I saw some caterpillars as well as some some nice trees and rocks. The views were outstanding. The castle itself was nice, but I think I preferred the cliff. That is just a personal preference though.

The start of the hike allowed nice views of Sistiana’s bay. The small cruise ship on the left is the ship I am on.
