We rode through another trulli city today, Locorotondo, on our way to Ostuni. Anne and I were able to get some pastoral and valley pictures of the trullis along the way. The blooming wild flowers also increase in number as spring progresses, so I could not resist a shot of a field in full bloom. Our final destination, Ostuni, is nicknamed the "white city". It is within a few miles of the Adriatic coast. All the houses in the historic centre are only painted with white lime paint. It was finally warm enough that we could strip down to short sleeves and sit in the sun while eating our typical reward for a completed ride--a cup or cone of gelato. We expect to eat some fresh fish tonight because of the close proximity to the coast. Tomorrow, we are going to spend a full day riding the northern coastline.
