The room that we are staying in at the Pallazzo Abadessa has a unique feature. It is a well that dates back to 1511. Yes, a water well! In fact our host warned us that we should avoid falling into the well. Duly noted! But it didn’t stop me from pulling back the brocade doily and peering down into the well. Of course, I first had to move aside the complementary bottle of Prosecco and the ancient key to the door. The palazzo itself, while not quite as old as the well, dates from late 1500’s.
