Romeo's house
The brick house, that looks like a little fortress, dates back to the 14th century and, according to tradition, is where Romeo lived. Many people, all year round, stop here to take a photo of this building, today it was my turn!
I can only apologise for cutting and pasting this comment, but there was no way on Earth I would be able to make it around the whole globe to wish everybody a Merry Christmas otherwise. I have only one pair of hands and the magical elves that I have working for me are a bunch of lazy good-for-nothings. All they do is sit around smoking, playing cards and throwing rocks at the reindeer!
Anyway, from myself, Henry and Ezra, have a Merry Christmas/Winter Solstice/Hanukkah/Festivus and a happy New Year!
I hope that all of your holiday photos turn out to be triumphs, and may your stocking be stuffed full of lots of tasty treats and not coal!
Ciao Valeria, che bella questa foto. Ci sono stata tanto tempo fa ed un piacere rivedere la famosa casa. Tanti cari auguri di buone feste. Bacioni. Antonella

No matter who lived there, it is especially marvelous for a Californian to see a habitation in continuous use for so many generations.
Wow what a great building and the history behind it is even better.
It's a romantic building.
I which you a Merry Xmas and a Happy new Year... and keep on with your great blog.
You have such great pictures. This one puts us right in the scene. Thanks for sharing.
I would love to be dining and drinking there right now.
