Description
A pleasing Land of Drowsy-hed it was:Of Dreams that wave before the half-shut Eye;
And of gay Castles in the Clouds that pass,
For ever flushing round a Summer-Sky
The Castle of Indolence, James Thomson
A view of the 15th Century Palazzo d'Avalos as it overlooks the Adriatic coastline. Taken from the city walls of Vasto, Chieti on a beautiful late summer afternoon.

Beautiful! The fact that the greener looks like it has overcomed part of the castle really adds the history to it.
