Even though now when we look at pictures it looks spectacular, and tour books describe it as a beautiful site with charming Mediterranean architecture -- we just were not impressed. It was one of those occasion where we parked the car, said we would meet back a 7:00 pm and within a short time we were all heading back to the car hoping the others would be there. We all met early and headed back to Sperlonga.

The ancient city is on a narrow peninsula with the cathedral dating back to 1276. Yes there was a medieval feel, but I think it is just one of those places that we will have to return for a second visit.
