We spent the day at Trulli di Alberobello (click for link.) These are little round houses.The town of Alberobello is made up of a hundred trulli. The little houses are whitewashed each year to keep them gleaming. They have grey cone shaped roofs. They are common in the area but unknown anywhere else. No one really knows the origin of the teepee design. Some say they are 5000 years old and others say they date back to the Middle Ages.
We have had to cut short our tour of Greece on the way out as there is a more pressing need to get to Turkey. So we will explore a little more on our way back. Basically we are now ferry hopping and should be in Kas in a couple of days.
