Udine, Friuli-Venezia Giulia

It has been years since I have been to Udine, so I was pleased to have gone there today with Daniela (my Dad's cousin). I found the town to be elegant and subtly charming. The piazza's were dominated by limestone buildings, ornately decorated arches and classic sculptures; the churches had beautiful frescos and iconography; the people seemed sophisticated and were beautifully dressed; and an appreciation of the arts seemed to be a universal passion.
