The new joy of Mondays

It still bowls me over to think that on any old weekday I can go hiking in the midst of such beauty! 

Today I joined Sandro, Elisabetta (see the extra photo) and Flavio on a hike, starting off at Puntone di Scarlino, walking through a natural reserve to Cala Violina, with a diversion to Cala Martina for a swim, and then a long way around back to the car. About 3.5 hours. A beautiful day, a lovely swim and very pleasant company!
