Clouds and Mountains in Ischia

Ciao a tutti! It's just coming up to 4pm and the sun is starting its weary decline already. The newly purchased temperature gauge tells me it's 15° Celcius (59° Fahrenheit) which seems about right. It's been a mixed day with spells of sunshine and cloud while right now there's a kind of mixture between the two. Today's photo is very much weather-related, taken down in Ischia Ponte this morning the image shows the mountains on the mainland covered in a dramatic looking cloud. In terms of events, this evening in Forio there's the "notte bianca", a kind of festival of shopping where the shops stay open all night (the name translates as "white night"). There'll be stalls selling gifts and snacks plus a bit of music too which sounds like lots of fun! Back with more tomorrow :-)
